MANILA, Philippines - Two-time defending champion Batang Talk N’ Text-Quezon City will be making its third consecutive finals appearance in the Coca-Cola Batang PBA Summer League following a 96-70 romp over Batang Rain or Shine-San Juan Friday at the Ynarez Center in Antipolo.

The Batang Texters of Under-13 national coach Mark Herrera picked up the pace early with 5-foot-4 Jolo Mendoza scoring all his team’s 37 points in the opening quarter.

He eventually finished with 41 points while John Vincent Gallego added 20 as Quezon City stayed on course for a three-peat.

Tylor Tio had 26 points and Mitchelle Ong 16 for the Batang Rain or Shine.
