THE Holy Crapmen of Manila bagged P400,000 after beating the Arturo T. Uy Comval, 83-74, in the championship game of the Oyo Basketball Cup held at the University of Mindanao Tagum gym in Tagum City.
The multi-titled M. Lhuillier Kwarta Padala-Cebu Ninos captured third place honors and P150,000 after beating Goldstar, 94-91, in a thrilling match that went to overtime. Forward Nat Cruz led the way for the Ninos with 24 points while Egay Billones paced Goldstar with 23 markers.
MLKP lost to the eventual champions in the semifinals last Saturday. Goldstar received P100,000 for finishing fourth.
In the title game, the Holy Crapmen led by eight at halftime but had their lead sliced to one, behind the efforts of Dino Daa and the bullstrong Charles Mamie.
However, Ramsey Willimans, Kiko Adriano and former MLKP import Davon Sullivan managed to fight off the many attempts of Comval to come even closer.
Sullivan grabbed MVP honors and finished the game with 17 points while Marlon Legaspi chipped in 15. /Correspondent Jonas Panerio
