Vaiula Afa scored in the fifth minute of the match but a handball in the box against Sharks 12 minutes into the second half saw the cougars equalise on the penalty kick.
JJ Sasala notched in the equaliser and both teams were unable to provide a winning goal.
In the only other game played, the Vikings edged the Lions 201 to create another shift in the top four standings.
Faga’itua (3-2-1, 11 points) moved back into the top four with a two-spot leap thanks to a 3-2 win over the Kanana Fou Stallions on February 3. They are now sitting at No. 3 and the win against Leone helped provide a little cushion as they are four points better than No. 4 Nu’uuli Voc-Tech (2-1-0, 7 points) and No. 5 Leone (2-1-0, 7 points).
The Wildcats lead the Lions in the differential in goals tiebreaker.
Samoana (5-2-0, 17 points) and Fa’asao-Marist (4-2-0, 14 points) are still 1 and 2 while Kanana Fou (1-0-4, 3 points) sits at No. 6, Tafuna (1-0-5, 3 points) at No. 7 and South Pacific Academy (0-2-3, 2 points) are at No. 8.
