National youth team striker Brent Sam scored a double as San Juan Jabloteh twice came from behind to earn a 2-2 draw with Caledonia AIA in their T&T Pro League Under-18 in a Reserve Division match on Sunday.
Jameel Neptune fired Caledonia into an 18th minute lead which lasted until Sam, the brother of former T&T striker Hector Sam drew his team level in the 80th.
However, with five minutes left in the match, Neptune regained the lead for Caledonia, only for Sam to grab an 89th-minute equaliser which kept his team on top of the table.
Jabloteh has 28 points from 12 matches, one more than W Connection which has played a match more, followed by Caledonia and Pt Fortin Civic, both with 23 points. W Connection and Pt Fortin drew 0-0 in their clash.
In the Under-16 age-group, W Connection clobbered Pt Fortin Civic 5-0 with four different players on target after its opponent conceded a 22nd minute goal to widen its lead to ten points over nearest challenger, North East Stars, who were idle.
And in the Under-14 competition, Kesean St Rose helped himself to a hat-trick as Jabloteh slammed Caledonia 6-to move ahead of North East Stars on goal-difference with both clubs on 30 points from 12 matches.
