Games today:
Cebu Coliseum
5 p.m. – Kia Motors-CIT-U vs. San Marino-USPF
6:45 p.m. – Gaisano Tisa-UC vs. Lion Tiger-USJ-R
The trend continued for two teams at opposite ends of the spectrum as the league-best Prime Asia-University of the Visayas (UV) Green Lancers bamboozled the league-worst San Marino Corned Tuna-University of Southern Philippines Foundation (USPF) Panthers, 85-57, in the 6th Cebu Schools Athletic Foundation Partner’s Cup late Tuesday night at the Cebu Coliseum.
Things remained pretty much the same for the Lancers, which zoomed off to their fifth win in as many games while sending the struggling Panthers down a downward spiral for their fifth straight loss.
Prime Asia leaned on their big men once more as Chris Perolino and Wowie Escosio bullied their counterparts to submission. Perolino scored 14 points while Escosio continued to build momentum for his much-anticipated debut in the regular Cesafi season with 13 markers.
Veteran guard John Abad was his old sharp self with 10 points.
San Marino, on the other hand, got 11 from Joseph Sedurifa while Art Camello and James Ferraren had 10 each.
The Panthers continue on their search for their first win in this competition today when they tackle the rising Kia Motors-Cebu Institute of Technology Wildcats in the first game set at 5 p.m. The main game will have the Gaisano Tisa-University of Cebu Webmasters taking on the Lion Tiger Aerosol-University of San Jose-Recoletos Jaguars.
