Members of the Gleaner football team celebrating after their 3-0 victory over Sherwin Williams in yesterday's KSAFA Business House Division 2 final at Emmet Park. - Junior Dowie/Staff Photographer THE GLEANER football team won the KSAFA Business House Division 2 title yesterday following a crushing 3-0 victory over Sherwin Williams at Emmet Park.
Captain Clint Reid struck twice for the Gleaner while the third goal came from the boot of Fabian Nethersole.
In the Division I final played at the same venue National Water Commission (NWC) clipped Caribbean Cement Company 1-0 to claim the title.
Gleaner ran rings around their Sherwin Williams opponents and extended their excellent finals record. The Gleaner team has never lost in a KSAFA Business House final. They were Division 2 winners five years ago and Division I champions in 2001.
Reid put his team ahead in the 43rd minute following a goalkeeping error.
Two minutes later, on the stroke of half-time, they extended the lead. A strong and accurate cross by Andrew Gill found Nethersole who made no mistake from close-in.
The third and final nail in the coffin for the Sherwin Williams team came in the second half when goalkeeper Edra Tingling left his area and was beaten by the always dangerous Sean Fraser. Fraser's cross found an unmarked Reid and with all the time in the world, he coolly slammed the ball into the back of an empty net.
The Division I final, though boasting a number of recognised players like, Harbour View's Conrad Hunt, was a markedly less exciting, as neither team allowed the other to play open football.
The winning strike came in the 79th minute when veteran player Fitzroy Anglin squeezed the ball from a tight angle past Cement Company's goalkeeper Julian McLeish at his far post.
