Second end-of-round champions Reno continue to fumble for their first win of the final round, as they played their way to a 1-1 draw with Tivoli Gardens in Wray and Nephew National Premier League action at Frome yesterday.

It's now been three games since the St. James team capped off an excellent second round with a 1-0 win over Harbour View in that final. However, since the start of the third and final round, they seem to have hit a dry spell and the former champions have managed a measly two points in three games.

League leaders Harbour View, who had the day off, are still seven points clear on 53 points and now have a game in hand.

Fabian Blake fired Reno into the lead in the 23rd minute, but Roland Dean erased the home team's hopes of all three points when he found an equaliser in the 40th minute.

In other games, relegation-threatened August Town continued to impress as they came from a goal behind to clip fellow debutantes, Naggo Head, 2-1 at Ferdie Neita Park. With their third straight win, August Town continue to march away from the relegation zone as they move into seventh place on 31 points, one ahead of Village United, who played their way to a 0-0 draw with struggling Waterhouse at the Elliston Wakeland Centre.

Kenardo Forbes excited the home crowd with a goal on the stroke of half-time, but Daniel Shaw snatched an equaliser for August Town in the 77th minute and Zico Herrera stole the win with a goal 10 minutes later.

At the Anthony Spaulding Sports Complex, the forecast continued to look grim for 11th place Wadadah as they could only manage a hard-fought 0-0 draw against sixth-place Arnett Gardens. At Catherine Hall, Boys' Town got by Seba 2-0 to register their first win of the third round.
