There was no difference as the second half began with the Warriors pushing ahead and moved in for the kill, scoring 20 points to the Sharks 13 at the third quarter ended 35-20.
As the last stanza began the battle wary Warriors were all over the listless Black Sharks as they finally sunk them, scoring 9 points to the Sharks 6, as the game ended 44-26.
Top scoring for the Warriors were Kevin Thom 16 points, while Shamar France and Kwesi Mickle scored eight each.
Top scoring for the Black Sharks were Garfield Benjamin with seven, while Royston Crandon and Ruel Franklin scored five each.
