The NPA Pythons handed LPRC Oilers a 46-44-point defeat in Sunday’s tight first division fixture at the SKD gym.

That Sunday’s result means the Phytons became the first side this season to beat the high-flying Oilers.

Spartacus became the first side this season to score 100 points in two different matches. Spartacus earlier dragged winless Commissioners more than 100 points win.
