    High five for Mandaue
    Apr 23, 2021

    ALCANTARA, CEBU - Red-hot KCS-Mandaue City rolled to its fifth straight win - a 75-66 wire-to-wire victory over the ARQ Builders Lapu-Lapu in the Chooks-to-Go Pilipinas VisMin Super Cup on Friday.

    The game was not without excitement as Lapu Lapu unleashed a 9-0 run capped by an and-one by Reed Juntilla to cut what once stood as a 15-point deficit to just six, 66-72, with 1:06 remaining.

    Mandaue's defense, however, held Lapu Lapu scoreless the rest of the way to strengthen its hold of second place in this Visayan leg on a 5-1 win-loss record.

    Dyll Roncal made all but two of his nine attempts to finish with 14 points for Mandaue. Michole Solera also reached double digits with 10 markers, on top of three boards and two assists.
