Gen. Feeds win away from grand slam title
GENERAL Feeds Mega Mix banked on the heroics of veteran wingman Ronald Paraiso to draw first blood in the best-of-three championship series for the CBF 2004 Commissioner’s Cup.
Mega Mix scored a 100-91 overtime win over guest team Lactovitale Probiotics at the Minglanilla Sports Complex Saturday night to move just a game away from winning the first-ever grand-slam title of the league.
“At least, the pressure is taken off my back. Winning Game 1 is very important to the players, who were also tasked to win the grand slam,” said Manalili.
Paraiso had a breakout game as a Feeds Master with a team-high 18 points.
In the opening game, Hapee Toothpaste also survived a thrilling game following a 75-73 win over Safety First Drinking Waters also in Game 1 of the Bes-of-3 series for third place.
Hapee (75) - Tundag 15, Sinco 13, Jimenez 13, Santos 10, Gloria 7, Huelar 6, Ignacio 6, Nailon 5. Safety First (73) - Limbo 20, Sugian 11, Luga 10, Lariosa 9, Ramirez 8, France 7, Daculan 6, Solis 2.
Gen. Feeds (100) - Paraiso 18, Ursal 16, Rodriguez 16, Reyes 11, Ababon 8, Caputolan 8, Celis 5, Magsumbol 4, Yuson 3. Lactovitale (91) - Saladaga 25, Castillo 19, Bucao 15, Sanz 8, Elim 7, Sevilla 6, Akad 4, Galinato 4, Almacin 2. (RCM)
