McLELLAN THE HAT-TRICK HERO AS DUNS HANG ON
Michael McLellan also hit three as fourth placed Dundela won a seven-goal thriller with Armagh City at Holm Park.
The Duns dominated the first half with McLellan knocking home two before the break and a third on 57 minutes while Jay Harvey also added to the tally early in the second period.
However the Eagles stormed back when Noeem Oladunjoye found the net just after the hour, and another through Conor Mullen on 75 minutes.
Marc McConnell then added a third for City with eight minutes remaining to set up a nervy finish but the visitors did enough to hang on.
