Sharks beat Stallions
JASPER Loreto and Mervin Balansag figured in a fierce offensive duel but it was the latter who had the last laugh as the Accenture Sharks devoured the Lexmark Stallions, 95-90, in last Sunday’s action of the 2012 Sun Cellular E-League for Basketball at the City Sports Club-Cebu Gym.
Loreto coughed up a season-high 33 points, barely edging Balansag in their scoring battle as Lexmark’s top gun finished with 32 points that went with his 16 rebounds, two blocks and two steals.
On the other hand, the Supportsave Jaguars and the Eperformax Reds scored their own victories against separate foes.
Jenille Kristianne Bantilan tallied 21 points and five steals in Supportsave’s 85-60 trashing of the Eli Global Underdogs while Eperformax leaned on a balanced attack to dump the Calltek Trojans, 63-39.
Fritz Vincent Blanes tallied 16 points, three steals and two assists, while Edmon Paradiang donated 15 points, four rebounds and two assists for Supportsave, which coasted after taking a 24-6 lead after the first quarter.
Raymond Dennis Tan was the only Red to score in double figures but it he had nine teammates scoring at least three points./EDITORIAL ASSISTANT CALVIND. CORDOVA
