                    [Summary] => Frontrunner ICTSI-La Salle and defending champion Shark Energy Drink try to keep their 1-2 position as they clash with Kutitap Toothpaste and Ana Freezers, respectively, in the PBL Challenge Cup at the Makati Coliseum today.


The Archers repulsed the Blu Detergent Kings, 83-73, Saturday to remain at the helm with an 8-3 (win-loss) record and another win versus the Teeth Sparklers at 5:30 p.m. will virtually assure them of one of the semifinal berths.

                    [Summary] => If Welcoat coach Junel Baculi is to be believed, the Paint Masters may no longer be around for next year’s Philippine Basketball League (PBL) Chairman’s Cup.


Baculi said six of his top players are reportedly joining the 2002 Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) draft scheduled next month.


"Six of our players are said to be joining the PBA next year and Welcoat management is seriously thinking of the repercussions of their departure," said Baculi.

Welcoat Paints, currently at third spot with a 6-4 win-loss slate, collides with Ateneo-Pioneer Insurance at 2 p.m., hoping to join defending champion Shark Energy Drink and Blu Detergents, both having identical 7-4 records, in second place behind pacesetting ICTSI-La Salle.

De Castro fired 12 of his 14 points in the fourth quarter including a 15-foot jumper before time expired as he lifted the Freezer Makers to their third win in seven outings.


"We blew away a big lead early on because of overconfidence. But mental toughness saved us in the end," said Ana Freezers team owner-coach Rudy Mendoza.

This came to fore when Giv and Welcoat pulled off identical one-sided victories over their respective rivals, who both brought twice-to-beat advantages into the semifinal round only to find themselves being dragged into a pair winner-take-all matches by their resilient foes.

But it was the Paintmasters’ defense that stymied the bid of the Freezer Makers, who were held scoreless in a seven-minute stretch in the final period that enabled the defending champions to turn what had been a close contest into a rout.

                    [Summary] => The wild, wild chase for the PBL Chairman’s Cup final berths comes down to a pair of matches today with Shark and sister team Giv Beauty Soap battling for the first championship slot and Ana Freezers and Welcoat clashing for the other.


This came to fore when Giv and Welcoat pulled off identical one-sided victories over their respective rivals, who both brought twice-to-beat advantages into the semifinal round only to find themselves being dragged into a pair winner-take-all matches by their resilient foes.

                    [Summary] => Welcoat unleashed a torrid run bridging the last two quarters as the Paintmasters roared to a runaway 72-53 victory over Ana Freezers last night to force a sudden death in their semifinal duel in the PBL Chairman’s Cup at the Makati Coliseum.


But it was the Paintmasters’ defense that stymied the bid of the Freezer Makers, who were held scoreless in a seven-minute stretch in the final period that enabled the defending champions to turn what had been a close contest into a rout.
