RABOBANK KNOCKOUT TROPHY
The marquee match in round 2 saw the two RBA teams come up against each other, and it turned out to be a real nail-biter with the Magic Milers edging the Midday Milers 108-105.  ABS Moving Averages were the highest scoring team to lose, going down 154-132 to Environment Clean Green Runners.  In a round where every match was won by a team scoring over 100 points, the lowest scoring winners were PWC Fasttrack, who beat APRA Standard Setters 103-79.
