-

CEBU, Philippines - Centennial Hardware ’95 scored its third win in five starts at the expense of MFL Mini Mart ’98-A, 74-66, in the Cebu Eastern College Alumni Basketball Association’s 11th Dr. Chen Lieh Fu Memorial Cup on Friday night at the CEC gym.

Class ’95 led by only a hairline at halftime, 32-31, but staged a daring breakway in the third period, 27-18, to gain complete command of the match, 59-49, heading into the payoff period.

Four players dished out twin figures underscoring Centennial Hardware’s balanced offensive. Archie Gue and Joseph James Yu each had 16 points, while Dean Dy Teves and Michael Tanbonthong pitched in 15 and 11 markers, respectively.

Rex Millan scattered a season-high 31 points and Paul Timothy So finished with 16 points, but they went home on a pensive note as Class ’98-A slumped to its fourth consecutive loss in as many games.

In the other game, First Family Appliance ’87/94 outsmarted PTT Lubricants 2005, 69-64, to even its win-loss record to 2-2. They took an early 19-13 lead, but the younger graduates rallied back to pull within 41-42 at the end of the third quarter.

However, Class ’87/94 banked on its experience to fend off every comeback attempt by Class 2005 in the windup.

Henrich Chua sank 21 points, while Stanley Gaw contributed 14 for Class ’87/94. They were heavily backed up by Wellington Yu and Bronson Peña with 22 points combined.

Philip John Lua had 18 points and Kent Benedict Uy added 14 for Class 2005, which slipped to 2-3. Godsent Alegado scored 12 and Karl Jigo Salibio netted 10 markers in a losing cause.
