Week 2...

The Weaver are quickest out of the blocks and sit atop the A League tree after a 139 - 98 win over the Harrington Academicals. Graham Bailey scored 27 for the Weaver and Rob Parkin 24 for the Accies.

The Ox-fford started their season with a 166 - 121 over the Pussycat Guys, for whom Alasdair Reid (now leading the A League Individual standings) and Andy Johnson both scored 33. Laurence Plant scored 36 for the Ox-fford which turned out to be the highest individual score of the night anywhere in all three leagues, which indicates the questions were tricky-ish by comparison to last week.
