Pampanga, Davao advance in PSL Finals

MANILA, Philippines — Pampanga and Davao City punched their way to the semis undefeated by hurdling their respective rivals on Day Three of competition in the PSL National Finals at the Victoria Sports Club in Quezon City.

The boys of Luid Kapampangan demolished erstwhile undefeated Caloocan, 82-58, to secure their third victory in as many games and headed into the next round in high spirits.

Like Pampanga, Davao City is also going to the semifinal round with a spotless record, this after running roughshod over Ormoc-OCCCI, 71-57.

Manila-UST banked on its balance offensive show then shackled Cavite’s main gunner Cyrus John Dalosa to score a one-sided 80-65 victory.

So unforgiving was Manila’s defense on Dalosa, who was held to just a lone basket and ended up with three points.
