ROWETT Rebels moved back to top spot on Friday night with an 8-1 win against Old School Foxes.
Chris Pink saved the whitewash with a last game victory over Kye Skeldon.
Wanderers beat third-placed Pelynt Travellers 6-3 to sit one point behind. It was always going to be a difficult match for Travellers with their top player, Adam Driver, unavailable.
They did share the spoils in the singles but got off to a slow start losing all three doubles. Travellers do look to be secure in third in the table despite the loss.
The battle for fourth place is not certain as teams are beating each other.
After the last round of games, five points separate fourth and eighth.
Udder Bullocks beat Wasted Seamen to move up to fourth with an 8-1 victory.
Steve Keylock prevented the whitewash in the last game of the evening against Andy Collins. Russell Smugglers sit two points behind Udder Bullocks despite losing 5-4 to Bulls Hitters.
With Smugglers leading 4-1, Hitters recovered to win the last four singles to take the match.
Three teams sit on 64 points, Bulls Hitters, Pelynt and Legion.
Pelynt had the easiest game against the lowly A Team and recorded a 9-0 victory, while Legion travelled to Polruan to take on the Pirates but came away with a 6-3 defeat. Jim Nelson took the only singles point for Legion against Donna Bawden. Tom Smith lost a close game 2-1 to Charlie Fisher but did record his first league ton-plus finish with a 105.
