Knights on top
WITH just one round of the home and away season remaining, Cobden's division one cricketers are sitting on top of the South West Cricket leaderboard.
The Knights have had a stellar season to date and last weekend enjoyed a win over the second-placed Pomborneit at MCP Oval.
The Bulls won the toss and elected to bat on Saturday, finishing their innings at 10/142 after 48 overs.
Knights captain Simon Murfett chipped in with 3/20 from eight overs while team-mate Matt Harkin was effective with the ball, taking 4/20 from six.
Other wickets also fell to Parker Walsh 2/26 and Edmund Walsh 1/27.
In reply the Knights reached 5/144 with middle order batsman Kaplan McCann unbeaten on 58 while Angus Uwland (12 not out) and opener Matthew Boyle (12) also reached double figures.
In other round 13 games, Heytesbury Princetown defeated Camperdown, Ecklin lost to Bookaar and Woorndoo was victorious over Boorcan.
The final round of the home and away season, to be played this weekend, will see Boorcan host the Storm, Camperdown home to Pomborneit, Bookaar will travel to Woorndoo and the Knights will host Ecklin.
