LUKE Ogley fired Highgrove into second spot in the Premier Division as he bagged a brilliant brace on a day of North Lancashire League drama on Saturday.
Ogley was a man in form as Highgrove beat Torrisholme 2-0, while Storeys also menacingly motored on as they beat Caton United 4-2.
Paul Boyle bagged a brace for the reigning champions and Graham Taylor and Andy Sanderson also scored with Darren Green and Ian Quinn on target for United.
Marsh slipped up when they drew 0-0 with Morecambe Royals - and long-time leaders TIC Dynamos were also held, drawing 1-1 with Ingleton. They stay on top of the tree - but the pack is closing.
Cellar dwellers Boys Club went down 2-1 to Boys Club and luckless Westgate Wanderers were also beaten as a Chris Haslam brace helped Galgate to a 3-0 win.
Division One leaders Carnforth Rangers went nap against Ingleton Reserves with Andy Taylor, Ben Price, Gavin Darby, Alex Benson and Peter Chippendale finding the net in the Saturday romp.
Vine and Millhead produced a nine-goal thriller as Simon Ball (two), Nick Ebbitt, Richard Brown and John Myatt found the net for Vine as Antony Leonard, Darren Mawdsley, Adam McCluskey and James Rafferty replied for Millhead in the 5-4 classic.
Torrisholme Reserves hit the goal trail in Division Two as Scott Shields bagged a brace in a 6-0 win over Millhead Reserves, while Aaron Simpson's hat-trick and Robert Goldsborough's brace helped Morecambe Hoops to a 7-0 thumping of Kirkby Lonsdale Rangers.
Bowerham, Central Pier and Galgate Reserves were Division Three's winners and there was a shock in Division Four as Overton crashed to a 3-2 defeat at Bentham Reserves despite a brace from Stuart Lowther.
