PML Final Four cast virtually completed

By Nazario Rodriguez Jr.

The cast for the Final Four of the 2007 Palau Major League was virtually completed this week but only the number one spot has already been reserved for PCC Mesekiu.
PCC has a commanding 19-1 win-loss record with just a game left of the ongoing third round.
Mesekiu outplayed Ngardmau, 15-8, last Saturday that virtually sent the Pirates out of contention from the playoff round with their current 9-9 markings in fifth place.
Despite their remaining three games, the Pirates will have no room catching up with three other qualifiers Kayangel (15-5), Airai (13-6) and Ngerbeched (13-6), the last three still positioning themselves in the second, third and fourth places of the playoffs to start in just over a week depending on the weather.
Rains have been hampering the schedule of games with a total of seven rained out games still to be played including last night’s match between Airai and Ngerbeched.
That game was still in progress with the loser will have no chance for the second spot.
Kayangel needed to win its two remaining games to assure itself of the second spot.
The K Angels scored a 15-5 win over Koror last Saturday April 14, then came-up with a 19-4 victory over Peches last Wednesday April 18.
Airai defeated Ngaraard, 20-2, last April 12.
The team standings for the rest of the field are Ngerbeches (4-15), Koror (4-17) and Ngaraard (0-18).
