Craig Stapleton (six) turned his match with Fred George into the rout of the day, 15-7, 15-11, 15-7; Peter Brooks nipped Ted Onderwood in the seventh match, 15-14, 15-11, 18-14; junior Matt Hall (eight) continued his streak of decisive victories by dumping Brent Arconi, 15-11, 15-8, 15-13; and sophomore Gordon Black whipped Dave Brown in the number nine match...
