The Pecandela Law Firm bucked the absence of skipper Mark Russ Gamallo and beat defending champion Los Demonyous, 58-57 to sweep its three second round matches in the Top Four division of the IBP 8th season basketball tournament.

Los Demonyous led by a single-digit in the first two periods but Pecandela responded with a, 14-11 rally in the third to tie the count at 38-all.

The game remained close in the fourth and was tied for the last time at 57-all on the short jumper of Los Demonyous’ Art Flores with seven seconds remaining. Then in the return play, Pecandela’s Tommy Yu sank one of his two free throws to peg the final count.
