At the end of the second round, Earls Restaurant has taken over the league lead in Div. 1 squash.

Assante’s iron hold on the top spot in the standings has loosened in recent weeks, allowing the Earls team to take an eight-point lead over their rivals.

Despite their new status, however, the Earls team – made up of Glenn Rudman, Shahid Syed, Tyler Nesgaard and Gary Tanner – lost 17-13 to Yukon Tree Services Tuesday.

In other action, Assante made up some ground with a 14-12 win over Aurora Geosciences, and TSL Contractors edged Better Bookkeeping 16-15.

Meanwhile, Yukon Brewing continued to extend their lead on the rest of the Div. 2 pack with a 22-6 win over Electrical Shop Thursday.

The team of Everett Igobwa, Mattaeus Geisler, Andre Benoit and Leif Austad has a 32-point lead over second place Bluewave Energy at the end of round two.

Bluewave beat Coast High Country Inn 15-13, and Yukon Transportation Museum hammered Riverstone Dental Clinic 17-7.
