Grun Worms and Phoenix’s Basketball five have completed the mission where their Volleyball counterparts have failed to do - that is to play in a championship game.
Unbeaten in the 2-game elimination round, Grun Worms and Phoenix fortify their finals clash by stopping their respective opponents in the semi-finals. Phoenix frustrated the Blazers 38-30, while Grun trounced the Trojans 47-36 in a game that saw players literally falling one-by-one because of cramps.
Phoenix will rely on the trio of Eric Pardiñas, Cecilio Yabut and Frederick Suarez in this championship battle while Grun Worms will be bannered by their formidable frontlines of Jar Ar Benitez, Lowell Palmiano and Mark Anthony Francisco.
Blazers and Trojans will wrestle for the runner-up trophy on Saturday afternoon after the Women’s Volley Finals at the Greenland Covered Court.
In the individual events, Greco Daclan of the Trojans overpowered Joel Sanchez of Stigma to win the Men’s Billiard crown while Ava Christine Cañeba of the Phoenix knocked Kathleen Jean Dela Cruz for the Women’s Billiard Title.
In the fight to protect the King and the Queen, Wilfredo Sangalang of Phoenix conquered the kingdom of Mark Anthony Buitre to win the Men’s Chess Kingdom. Over at the Women’s Chess Division, Katherine Sesmundo of Stigma Team overruled Marilou Ramirez of Phoenix to bag the title.
Precious Dionson of the Grun Team emerged victorious in the Women’s Badminton Division and Kevin Oraca of the Blazers secured the title for the Men’s Badminton challenge. The duo of Kevin Oraca and Josel Valdez of Blazers bagged the Mix Badminton Division trophy.
