Manila-UST, Pangasinan strike in PSL National Finals

MANILA, Philippines — Manila-UST survived a hard-fighting Ormoc-OCCCI squad, 65-55, in Day 2 of the PSL National Finals at the Victoria Sports Club in Quezon City.

Using its size, manpower and experience, Manila endured a grueling duel in the first three quarters before seizing control in the payoff period and finally putting away a team composed of a bunch of 14 years old competing in the 16-and-below tournament.

Gab Castro pulled down 19 boards on top of producing 11 markers, Tayshaun Guerrero scattered 13 points and added 12 rebounds while Zaccary Valenzona chipped in 10 markers and 11 caroms for Manila-UST.

Meanwhile, Pangasinan banked on its dynamic duo of Jann Domingo and Jheremy Godoy to wallop Misamis Oriental, 69-43.
