Saturday as he saw his name enter the record books on a rather dubious note.

Swainson scored four goals in the Group B match with Prospect, but three went into his own net, thus helping his opponents to a 4-3 win.

Robin Hollinsid scored Prospect's other goal while James Pace and Shannon Fox added tallies for the Islanders.

With Dandy Town defeating Boulevard by default, only one other Alliance game was played and witnessed Devonshire Colts and Hamilton Parish battle to a 2-2 draw.

Registering strikes for Colts, who led 2-0 at the half, were Keishon and Darrin Smith.

However, Parish displayed some resilience to come back and level things through Earnest Lathan and Albert Wolffe.

Meanwhile, in Commercial League Cup action, BAA Wanderers and Robin Hood booked spots in the Group A final, with Somerset Extros earning the right to defend their title against Devonshire Colts All-Stars.

Wanderers, having wrapped up the league title, are seeking their second piece of silverware of the year.

On Saturday they laid waste to the unpredictable Rangers, seizing an early 2-0 lead and cruising the rest of the way.

Tony Lambert and Arthur Reilly performed the scoring chores.

A tense affair occurred when Robin Hood clashed with Spinning Wheel as 90 minutes was not enough to settle things either way and extra time resulted in Hood emerging 4-2 victors.

The score stood level at 2-2 at the end of regulation as Johnny Nusum and Allan Fray scored for Wheel while Hood's Peter Slater buried two penalties.

In overtime Des Minors finally stepped to the fore, blazing in two goals and bringing his division-leading tally to 23.

A first-half strike by Extros' Mel Roberts clinched victory against Prison Officers at Malabar.

Their future opponents, Devonshire All-Stars, scraped past St. George's All-Stars 5-3 on penalties after regulation and overtime failed to break a 2-2 deadlock.

Skipper Sandy Thomas gave Colts a first-half lead and Damon Simmons added another, but the men from the east came back through George Cannonier and Earl Simmons to force two more periods.
