Medvil and PWC are each toting 2-0 records in the meet organized by the Davao Football Association (DFA) and sponsored by Jollibee and RDL Pharmaceuticals.
The UP Min Varsity and Tambayan occupied the cellar with two straight defeats each.

In bracket A, Team United kept its lead by hacking out back-to-back wins. It defeated University of the Philippines (UP) Alumni Lasang FC-Navarro by lopsided scores of 6-0 and 10-0.

UP Alumni has yet to score a point having lost its past two games while Lasang suffered its first setback in the league established by former councilor Mabel Sunga Acosta to promote women's football in Davao.

Matches will resume on Saturday. (Marianne Saberon-Abalayan)
