On Saturday, Petrotrin whipped Palo Seco 3-1, with James again starring with a double, while Colin Joseph got the other goal.  Devon Clement got the consolation. The “Black City” men shut out Police 2-0 on Saturday with goals from Quincy Nichole and Masimba Hope and trail the league leaders by six points with two games in hand.
