Thursday, September 28, 2006 River of God triumphs
TITLE-contender River of God Church nipped Grace Baptist Chuch A, 93-83, in the Inter-Church Basketball League Duterte Cup Fourteenth Conference Sunday at the Davao City Recreation Center.
The Pastor Blair Cuares-managed River Of God Church played with so much determination as it entered the winning column over Grace Baptist Church.
The River Of God dribblers lost heir first two games before bouncing back on the heroes of Michael Puerto, who topscored with 33 points.
Gneil Santos topscored for GBC-A with 27 points. River Of God led by 8 points at the first canto.
In the second game, sister team Grace Baptist Church Team B continued its winning streak over a no-show again by newcomer The Jesus Christ of Nazareth Baptist Church.
The latter suffered its second default, which automatically disqualifies them in the league.

Grace Baptist Church Team B plays newcomer TJC Good Shepherd at 8 a.m., followed by the TOPCF-B & Beatitudes-B encounter at 9:30 am.
