Pepsi Prestige Park, Lighton: Two early impressive teams meet here, with both regular second hitters on the bench as the Prestige's Citrus and the Tridents' Spot sit this one out. Precious ripped 829 for Pronger on the opening turn, a great effort out of the captain. Acorn's busy schedule so far finally caught up with him, as the Lighton captain exited on a meager 64 points.

Nightfur struggled with pace for most of her turn, ending with 384, which was not enough for the Crowns to cover the deficit. Oreo answered with 636 for the Knights, padding their lead with another good outing. Brownie got jammed on the hands and exited with 276 for Royal, unable to break down the hosts' bowling at all.

AT&T Oceanside Stadium, Oceanside: The Volcanoes are resting Leonette for this game, while the Waves will sit Jason V. in Elite's Week 3 finale.
