Welcoat triumphs; Ana stuns Shark

Welcoat peppered Montana Pawnshop with a barrage of three-pointers in the last two quarters as it ran away with a 98-84 victory yesterday in the PBL Challenge Cup at the Makati Coliseum.

The Paintmasters buried nine of their 14 triples in the second half with Ren Ren Ritualo and Jojo Manalo combining for nine of the total output as Welcoat notched its second straight win.

Yancy de Ocampo likewise imposed his will underneath as the 6-foot-9 slotman came away with 20 points, 13 rebounds, three assists and two shot blocks.

In the other game, Roland Pascual took over for Ana in overtime as the Freezer Kings stunned the fancied Shark Power Boosters, 72-67, for their first win in three games. — Joey Villar
