BAA moved back into second place in the First Division standings following a narrow 2-1 win over Vasco on Monday night at Goose Gosling Field.

Striker Patrick Quinn netted both goals for BAA as all the scoring came in the second half. Quinn broke the deadlock in the 57th minute only to see Michael Armstrong, a 55th minute substitution, equalise for Vasco in the 72nd minute.

Quinn made certain of all three points for BAA with the winner in the 85th minute. The win lifted them back ahead of Boulevard who took over second place on Sunday with an 8-0 victory over Paget.
