Burger King Clapham Toners suffered a shocking meltdown when the league action continued at the Wildey Gymnasium.
Toners who previously led the standings were up two sets and leading 23-19 in the third before folding 25-22, 25-23, 23-25, 22-25, 5-15 to create greater league drama. Ashley Jordan, Ashley Marshall and Janelle Chase-Mayers continued their attacking form and libero Jhada Goddard played a great passing game to give Toners the upper hand.
Left-handers Abege Carrington, Serena Edwards, veteran Julia Lewis along with pint sized Marissa Dowell kept Deacons in the hunt with Shanna Jones adding to the cause as libero before she had to leave the game with an injury in the fourth set.
Chargers crushed Development Volleyball in Motion 25-15, 25-7, 25-18 to keep within striking distance of the leaders.
