CEBU, Philippines — Glenn Maghinay dropped 25 points spiked with 11 rebounds and five assists to power the Cruz Amigos to a 90-55 rout of SKBC in the 1st Amicis Basketball League (ABL) season at the Consolacion Sports Complex.

Dodong Tundag added 19 points, six rebounds and four assists while Dominic Sarsalejo chipped in 12 markers and six boards as Cruz Amigos of team owner/head coach Atty. Eric Cruz tightened their grip of the solo second place in the 29 Under category with a 3-1 win-loss record.
