Azariah Simon equalised for El Dorado West in the 75th minute. The 1–1 result gave West 24 points from ten matches, one ahead of East, and its first East Zone boys’ Championship Division crown. TTT also reported the school’s title on 27 October.
West finished the listed league campaign unbeaten, with seven wins and three draws. The title qualified the school for the Big Five play-off against other zone winners for a chance at promotion to the boys’ Premiership Division. The 28 October report records qualification for that play-off, not promotion itself.
