Nawn, second seeded in the tournament, forced defending champion Ufford into extra points in the first two games before losing 16-13, 16-14. He proceeded to completely submerge Ufford 15-2 in the third game, but dropped the fourth 15-9.

In the second position, Dave Watts defeated veteran John Cornish, fifth ranking player in the state, by scores of 15-12, 15-6, 15-12.

Hadden Tomes clinched the match by winning 3 to 2 after dropping the first two games. His scores: 10-15, 12-15, 18-14, 15-11, 15-9.
