SYDNEY CORPORATE CUP POINTSCORE TROPHY
It was another superb day for a run, sunny but not too warm.  The point scoring was again not high, with four teams reaching the 100 points mark: Macquarie Nomads again led the way, streeting the field with a massive 185 points, followed by Reserve Bank Magic Milers with 104, Macquarie Generals with 102 and Westpac Harriers with 101 points.  Macquarie Nomads have opened up a huge 103 point gap at the top of the field.  The total points scored in run 2 was 2,345.

RABOBANK KNOCKOUT TROPHY
The top of the table clash saw Reserve Bank Magic Milers beat BT Dominators 104-83, while there were several close matches in the rest of the draw, with three matches decided by less than 10 points.  Reserve Bank Midday Milers beat State Treasury 71-63, ASX All Ordinaries beating ANZ Incredibles 69-63 and in the closest match King & Wood Mallesons pipped Team UBS 40-38.  63 was clearly the unlucky number for the day, as PWC Fasttrack also scored 63 and lost, to Westpac Trotters who scored 74.
