John del Rosario led STI College OrCa's comeback
Vincent Vigil slices one in
John del
Rosario, Vincent Vigil and Daniel Reyes presided over the STI College OrCa
comeback with del Rosario pouring in a game high of 30 points. STI College
Novaliches was led by their shifty point guard Nesty Taguba and got ample
support from his team mates but unfortunately ran out of steam in the endgame.
Taguba scored 16 points while the trio of Joash Rupisan, Albeth Camay and
Rosman Lee each scored 13 points apiece.
After a
precarious two point lead at the end of the first quarter, STI College
Novaliches worked on their defense to force the Ortigas-Cainta team to nine
turnovers which they took advantage by scoring nine points off their turnovers.
STI College Novaliches would end the half up by ten points as they were
smelling the sweet scent of revenge. Unfortunately for them, the difference of
the first and second half was like night and day as STI College Novaliches
shooting suddenly turned cold.
In the third
quarter, STI College OrCa forced STI College Novaliches to ten turnovers which
they converted to 17 points enroute to a 30 point third quarter. The Rizal
based cagers held the Quezon City team to just ten points in the quarter and
seized the upperhand at the end of 30 minutes of action 59 – 51.
STI College
OrCa would hold on to their fourth quarter lead as Del Rosario and Vigil once
again provided the firepower to quell all rallies mounted by STI College
Novaliches. Nesty Taguba and Rosman Lee lit up the boards once again
as they gave STI College Novaliches one last push to salvage a win,
unfortunately though STI College OrTigas Cainta had the answers everytime they
were threatened which as a direct opposite to their previous game wherein their
offense froze after a while.
