Teesside Transporters maintained their excellent home record as they earned back to back wins. A narrow 46-44 success over North East rivals Whitby before dispensing of newly promoted Wednesfield 50-40.
Teesside's big scoring heat leaders Hans E Bergestol, Olle Bjorn Thoresen and Braxton McChesney all continued their good starts to the new season with Bergestol registering a paid maximum against Wednesfield - which came days after a third place in the opening GP of the season in North America. McChesney also made the semi-finals. Thoresen had engine problems before scoring a late win.
All three have commented how happy they are in Teesside this season and it showed both domestically and on the GP front.
Teesside boss Graeme Bailey was also very happy with how Jack Hagen and Eugene Burkes had stepped up. "They are both very young, everyone forgets that but they are getting stuck in. Our big three are going their part but everyone is chipping in. We have started the season really well, the lads are mixing so well - but they have all known each other for some time now."
Teesside now turn their attention to the defence of their KO Cup crown which continues against Lanarkshire next week.
