ONLY one match was played yesterday in round 11 of the 2018 Secondary Schools Football League Premier Division, owing to the rain.
All six matches in Trinidad were postponed, including the giant clash between leaders Presentation College, San Fernando and second-placed San Juan North Secondary.
The only match played was between St Benedict's College and Bishop's High School in Tobago. Last-placed Bishop's continued their poor run, as St Benedict's came from behind to win 2-1. Bishop's only have one point for the season and have lost 10 of their 11 matches. With the win, St Benedict's moved from eighth to fifth place in the standings.
It has not been announced when the postponed matches will be played.

Keon Boney and Justin Chu Foo were both on target as St Benedict’s College came from behind to beat Bishop’s High 2-1 to continue its climb towards safety in the Shell/First Citizens Secondary Schools Football League Premier Division on Saturday.
With all the matches carded for Trinidad postponed due to the inclement weather, all focus was on the lone contest in Tobago with both teams eager to pick up crucial points.
Bishop’s High, yet to get a win this season was first to strike through Dominique Lyons in the tenth minute. However, Boney drew St Benedicts level in the 20th to send both teams in at the half-time interval at 1-1.
The visitors then grab the eventual match-winner in the 59th-minute courtesy Chu Foo, for a fourth win in nine matches this season, to move to 14 points, level with Trinity College East and Trinity College Moka. Meanwhile, Bishop's stayed bottom of the table with one point and headed towards relegation back to the Tobago Zone in the Championship Division after only one season in the top flight.
Matches will resume on Wednesday.
