By Rubén Morales Iglesias: Leaders Santa Cruz downed Succotz United 2-1 in the Benque Viejo del Carmen First Division Football Championship at the Edmund Marshalleck Stadium on Holy Saturday.

After a scoreless first half, Hector Martinez opened the score in the 48th minute. Two minutes later Darren Mis made it 2-0.
