PEGASUS were the only Ulster side to end the weekend in profit, albiet by a point, as Ulster Elks and Ards both suffered defeats in the latest EY league round.
Pegasus held Loreto to a draw, but had to settle for just a point as the league leaders grabbed the shootout bonus point.
Railway Union and Pembroke continued their ascent up the table with wins over Ards and UCD respectively.
Old Alex and Catholic Institute reduced the gap at the top by a point with their wins over UCC and Ulster Elks.
