Jamaica College romped to the biggest win of the season when they drubbed a hapless St. Mary's College 17-0 in ISSA/Pepsi/Digicel Manning Cup action at Old Hope Road yesterday.

St Mary's College must have thought that they had hit rock bottom in their 13-0 hammering at the hands of Waterford in their last fixture. However, the St Catherine team was only perched on a precipice near the record as they not only conceded a new season high, but have now let in a startling 63 goals in total.

Ramone Palmer netted six goals in the encounter, Anthony Grant had four, Marc Robinson and Ashaine Walker had a brace each, while there was one goal each for Adrian Christian, Kemar Douglas and Akeem Bennett. Palmer opened the scoring in the second minute and Grant added a second in the tenth. Grant would find the back of the net again in the 14th, but when Palmer netted again in the 24th, St. Mary's College seemed content to settle for the familiar humdrum of an expected battering. Walker stole in to finish up Robert Palmer's spilled 35th minute free kick, while Christian was allowed another tap- in effort one minute later.

Palmer completed his hat-trick in the 38th minute and Grant drifted in from the 18 yard area, weaving his way past three defenders to push the score to 7-0 headed into half-time.

St Mary College custodian Neverone Hibbert continued to be busy as he watched Grant net a 48th minute penalty score again in the 56th before Palmer netted his fourth, fifth and sixth goals in the 74th, 78th and 79th minutes respectively.

Other goals came from Douglas 66th, Bennett 81st, while the goal spree was completed by Robinson and Walker. Jamaica College are now the sole Group D leaders with 19 points.
