RJX Transport clobbers JRJ Enterprises in CECABA
CEBU, Philippines - RJX Transport Solutions ’99 sustained its sizzling run with a 52-41 whacking of JRJ Enterprises/Semers 2007 in the Cebu Eastern College Alumni Basketball Association’s 11th Dr. Chen Lieh Fu Memorial Cup last Monday night at the City Sports Club-Cebu gym.
Mark Eugene Bukiron transformed himself into a one-man wrecking crew as he charted 23 points to power Class ’99 to its seventh win against a solitary defeat.
RJX Transport was down by five at the end of the first period, 8-13, but rallied back in the next two quarters to grab the upperhand for good, 34-31, after three quarters. Class ’99 then finished off the youngest graduates with an 18-10 spurt in the windup.
Raymark Ryan Ong and Juan Carlo Espada connived for 21 points for Class 2007, which absorbed its third loss in four starts.
In the other game, Young Builders ’91 rode on a spirited endgame assault to thwart Chester Enterprises ’82/83, 47-39. They trailed a hairline, 28-27, but outgunned Class ’82/83 in the final period, 19-10.
Juan Borromeo, Jr. scored 14 as Class ’91 chalked up its second victory in five games. Stephen Tan dished out 16 points and Christopher Cokaliong added 10 but they fell short in the end as Class ’82/83 slumped to its fourth straight defeat after kicking off their campaign with back-to-back wins.
