/ 07:04 AM October 03, 2012

THE CEBU Landmasters snatched the rug from under the many-time champions Goldberry Suites as they won Game One of the best-of-three Finals series, 66-61, in overtime in the Sacred Heart Ateneo Alumni Basketball Athletic Association (SHABAA) last Sunday at the SHS-Ateneo de Cebu campus in Canduman, Mandaue City.

Ervin Lopena stepped up in the absence of the top guns of the Cebu Landmasters as he scored 23 points, including a crucial trey with seconds remaining in regulation that sliced Goldberry’s six-point lead in half.

With time running out, Gino Reyes swished another three pointer that tied the game to send it to the extra session where the Landmasters dominated en route to logging in the win.
