With Spalding and District Billiards League leaders Long Sutton not in action on Monday night, title rivals Donington cranked up the pressure on them.
Second-placed Donington romped to a maximum 7-0 success at Gosberton A, with Jim Thompson (R40), Ben Wrigglesworth (R60) and Matt Turner (R50) all on winning form.
Turner chipped in with a 20 break for the winners, who are now just 3.5 points behind the table-toppers.
Also picking up a whitewash 7-0 success were Holbeach C, who put third-placed Consti B to the sword in what was a very emphatic display.
Despite cue ace Mick Johnson (O180) making a 48 break in frame one, Colin Dodd (R70) made a 23 break en-route to beating him 200-0. James Glover (R100) and Ben Harding (R80) followed that up with frame wins to seal a 600-292 aggregate win.
Harding also added a cool 26 break.
Elsewhere, Consti C picked up a 5-2 triumph against basement boys Pyramid A.
Stu Davies (R30) and Alan Hansard (R70) made breaks of 25 and 22 respectively for Consti in that one.
Also winning 5-2 were Holbeach B, who picked off hosts Pyramid B 5-2. Despite breaks of 35 and 30 from Martin O’Connor (scr), it was frame wins from Nigel Ward (R100) and Tony Blanchard (R60) which were key.
