Guardo 93 thumps Skygo 95 By Christian Ben Rodriguez
GUARDO-ARTHRO 93 demolished Skygo 95, 73-65, in the opening salvo of the 2004 Osaka Iridology-San Carlos Boys High Alumni Basketball Association (SCBHABA) at the USC Boys High Gym last Sunday.
Roy Jumao-as led Guardo-Arthro with a team-high 20 points while former Metropolitan Basketball Association star Patrick Benedicto scattered 13 points after a sew-saw ballgame.
Guardo-Arthro banked on Jumao-as jumpshots while Benedicto provided muscle in the paint and anchored a monstrous defense.
Skygo 95 played catch-up during the second quarter with a 17-11 rally sparked by Leo Dale Caparas to cut the lead to 43-39 at halftime after Guardo-Arthro led by as much as 11 points.
Guardo Arthro, however, came back with Bong Eleazar scoring nine points in the third quarter alone stretching back the lead to 55-49 in the third quarter.
Benedicto was unstoppable at the fourth period draining three lay-ups and giving Caparas a tough time on the other end.
Meanwhile, Ho Tong Hardware 70 defeated Teri 80, 74-58, while Shido 90 dumped Batch
96, 82-77.
