[1-0]
LSGH needs to score a 4-0 shut-out of ADMU to take the crown but while the games are in progress, Chief Arbiter lao declared LSGH's Bd 3 Niq de Leon in default due to a technicality; that when Rhal was elevated to Bd 2, Niq should also be elevated to Bd 1. After the declaration, Mat lost on Bd 4, Gio won at bd 1 and Rhal lost on Bd 2 for a 1-3 tally.
