NAUNGUSAN ng Jose Rizal University ang nangungunang Racal, 77-75, Lunes ng gabi sa 2017 PBA D-League Aspirants’ Cup sa JCSGO Gym sa Cubao, Quezon City.

Nasilat din ng Wangs Basketball ang AMA Online Education, 98-93.

Nanguna sina Paolo Pontejos at Tey Teodoro sa pinagsamang 17 puntos sa final period para madungisan ang Tile Masters matapos ang 6-0 ratsada.

“We know how strong Racal is. We kept on pushing, kept on fighting, and I told them to be ready,” pahayag ni JRU coach Vergel Meneses.

6 koponan nagbabalak ligwakin ang PVL; lilipat daw sa bagong liga?

Bunsod ng panalo, umusad ang JRU sa 3-3 karta.

“Victoria got their first win against us, so I think it’s just right that we deal Racal its first loss,” ayon kay Meneses.

Sinandigan naman ni Von Tambeling ang Couriers sa naiskor na 21 puntos.

“Chinallenge ko lang sila kasi mas maganda talunin yung may pangalan,” pahayag ni Wang’s coach Pablo Lucas, nakamit ang ikalawang panalo sa pitong klaro.
