St. Jago High secured their first win of the Manning Cup season by hammering Edith Dalton James 8-0. In a bid to kick-start their season, the Monk Street-based institution is seeking inspiration from this victory to chase down Zone leaders Wolmer’s Boys, who defeated second-place Tivoli Gardens High 4-2.
Charlie Smith High defeated Waterford High 4-0 in their rescheduled fixture to move into second place in Zone B.

Eltham High versus Hydel High is the lone Zone A encounter and also a battle for the top spot. Campion College will look to rebound from their defeat to Kingston College as they host surprise package Penwood High. Runaway Zone leader Kingston College will travel to Meadowbrook High, while Jose Marti Technical will go up against Cumberland High in the St. Catherine derby.
