LEADERS Soham A had a clean sweep at Hiams and though their opening three victories were marginal they have since put together a run, improving their shot advantage by 133.
Littleport and City of Ely maintained their challenge, but Newmarket went down to Ely Beet B, who move above them.
Ely Beet A lost on three rinks at Haddenham, but were covered by Fred Harrison's trio who had enough shots to earn the bonus points for an unusual 4-3 scoreline.
