They faced first-placed Longford, who cruised past an 80-run Durhams total that was heavily influenced by Tigers bowler Nicole Davey, who collected three wickets off just five runs.
All it took was Longford's top order of Stacey Norton-Smith (26 runs) and Mary Broadhurst (20) to take the match.
Elsewhere in sport:
Bracknell narrowly staved off an uspet against Evandale.
Opener Natalie Curbishley and tail-ender Emma Thomas book-ended Bracknell's total of 103.
Kaye Buchanan (14) got the Panthers off to an admirable start, but aggressive bowling and crucial late wickets saw them fall three wickets shy by the end of the innings.
ACL's batting order (4-122) set the tone for a high-run affair against Hadspen (2-118).
Second-placed Trevallyn were on a bye.
