Williams delivered under pressure, scoring a strike in the 10th frame to secure the victory with 187 pinfalls, edging out Southwestern University Phinma’s College of Engineering dean John Zamora by just four pins.
Zamora, who is originally from Dagupan, Pangasinan, but now resides permanently in Cebu, settled for runner-up honors with his 183 output. Completing the podium was Division C standout Tessie Dante, who tallied 172.
The championship shootout featured the top scorers from each division during the elimination phase.
