CRITICAL CLASHES IN NIRL FIRST DIVISION
Two of the three games are critical in the North Island Recreational League... first place Jackson (6-2) plays at home against second place New Yerby (5-3) in the prime contest... while the Kofa Kings (4-4) will host second place Dutton (5-3)... in the other game, one of the basement dwellers will escape last place as Stockdale (2-6) tries to win its third straight on its homefield, opposed by the Union Heights Hackers (2-6).
None of the top three teams in the NIRL Second Division play each other... first place Joliet (7-1) is seeking its eighth consecutive victory in Wafford... the last place Eagles (2-6) are on a five-game losing skid... runner-up Theodore (5-3) will attempt to make West Chester its fourth victim in a row... and second place Avalon (5-3) will travel to Kinston (2-6).
