By Patrick C. Costelo
GUARDO Shiatsu 85 swept the Division I Finals series after clinching Game 2, 94-82, against Rudy Project 88 in the Osaka-Carolinian Basketball Association (CBA) Tuesday night at the Guadalupe Sports Center.
In Division II, the SkyGo Riders 95 exploited their height advantage over Guardo Arthro 96, sweeping their own best-of-three Finals series through a 95-86 win.
Edwin Banaag led the two-time defending champion Batch 85 with 29 points as he ripped the net with fellow shooter Lou Regidor, cashing in from the perimeter that wreaked havoc on Batch 88s defense.
Jone Sepe, who pounded his way in the middle to finish with 18 points, Roy Aznar and Dong Bacallos provided the screens for Banaag and Regidor, building a 12-point lead midway through the third frame.
In the final period, Rudy Project tried to contain Banaag with a double-team only to have it backfire on them when Lindo Torrejos got the open looks to log 17 points.
Guardo Shiatsu 85 (94) Bannag 29, Sepe 18, Regidor 17, Torrejos 17, Gonzaga 6, Bacaltos 5 Aznar 2. Rudy Project 88 (82) Sauza 20, Monterroyo 20, Odulio 14, Auza 12, Gantuangco 6, Pilapil 6, Reyes 3, Biliran 2.
