SYDNEY CORPORATE CUP POINTSCORE TROPHY
A cool breeze made for much more pleasant running conditions than the horrors of run 3, and the point scoring bounced back to more normal levels. Nine teams reached the 100 points mark, led by Telstra Tornados with 138. They were followed by Deutsche Springers on 133 and ABS Moving Averages on 127. Apra Running Regulators and ABS Moving Averages remain in the top two places overall, with King & Wood Mallesons sneaking into 3rd place, three points ahead of Telstra Tornados. The total points scored in run 4 was 2,933.

RABOBANK KNOCKOUT TROPHY
Six of the eight quarter finalists were among the ten teams who scored 100 points or more. Inevitably a couple had to miss out, with MBA Yield Chasers going down to Telstra Tornados 138-117 and Commonwealth Bank Harriers 1 losing 121-106 to Apra Running Regulators. The other matches saw Rabobank Grasshoppers beat State Treasury 105-42 and King & Wood Mallesons beat ANZ Invincibles 112-97.
