MANILA - Bacolod held off a late charge by a gritty Negros squad to win 68-67, its second straight victory in the 2021 Chooks-to-Go Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League Invitational powered by TM, Sunday at the SM Mall of Asia Arena.
The Negrenses then failed to capitalize on their end with Ralph Dinolan losing the ball to Kraniel Villoria as time expired. Though the win was a wire-to-wire victory that saw the Rice Vanguards lead by as much as 18 points, head coach Carlo Tan was disappointed with the defense displayed by the team.
The Rice Vanguards continued to step on the pedal in the final frame as Roi Sumang, Renz Palma, and Diego Dario also got into the offensive spree. The closest the Marlins got in the final frame was at seven which ended up being the final score.Given just two weeks to prepare for the 13-day tournament that has P2-million going to the champion, Golden Coolers head coach Rodney Santos focused on defense to prepare the team for the marathon. They forced the Warriors to shoot just 32.
