Man-Tech chalks first win in SHABA

Man-Tech finally barged into the winners column at the expense of Hytsu 2005, 54-41, even as Worldwide Steel '99 continued its rampage with a 73-54 rout over K-1 Familu KTV 2001 in the Sacred Heart Alumni Basketball Association (SHABA) at the SHS-J gym.

Jun Comeros took the scoring cudgels for Man-Tech as he chalked up 15 markers as they also capitalized on the absence of Hytsu's leading scorer Rod Mangubat.

Man-Tech won its first game after four straight losses.

Antonio Carlos Datan lead Hytsu with 14 points.

Worldwide Steel '99, on the other hand, posted its fifth straight victory behind Jeremy Huan and Robert Gilo, who piled up 17 points apiece while Paul Cabrera tallied 21 markers for K-1.

In the other game, defending champion Gillamac's 97-A dumped Cebu Del Norte '95, 59-52.

Ellery Ariate finished 20 points and Walter Ong added 16 points to anchor its fourth win.

Ian Ong had 14 points for Cebu Del Norte as they slipped to 2-3 win-loss record.
