Vanguards, 64-79, in their last elimination round match on Sunday, April 17, 2022, at the Manuel Roxas Sports Complex in Roxas, Zamboanga del Norte.
What’s more heartbreaking is the Chiefs were eliminated through their point quotient as they were tied with two other teams in the standings — Kapatagan Buffalos and the Cagayan de Oro Sealcor Kingfishers. Despite being booted out of the tournament, the Chiefs’ head coach Roger Bergado is very optimistic that his players will play better in the U21 first conference tentatively scheduled in the last week of May.
However, Roxas quickly cut Lapu-Lapu’s momentum and had another scoring run to bring back their lead to double digits, 37-26.In the second half, the Vanguards didn’t look back and extended their lead to 17 points, 47-30, as Lapu-Lapu struggled both offensively and defensively.With the victory, the Roxas Vanguards clinched the No. 2 spot and will face the Province of Bukidnon Cowboys in the semifinals with a twice-to-beat advantage. The semifinals will kick off tomorrow, Monday, April 18, 2022.
