THE match of the round in Campaspe Valley Bowls Division did not feature the top side of the competition, but rather the second and third sides.
City of Echuca made the trip across the bridge to take on Rich River, with a win for the Victorian side possibly seeing it sit in second place.
The opening two rinks saw a split result, with both teams winning a rink by seven shots to lock up the scores before the final rink.
In the end, the margin was as close as they come, with just one shot separating the two sides and giving Rich River the win.
It leaves Rich River sitting with two less wins than competition leaders Moama, but with one abandoned match on their tally.
On the road, Moama added another victory to its season, with the team now having won eight of its nine completed games.
Moama's 17-shot victory against Mathoura saw the team lose just one rink in the contest.
In the third match of the round, Tongala made 14 more shots to win the game 2-1 against Rochester.
