Mountaineers clinch playoff spot, defeats Manila All-Stars 115-112

Vulcan Arena, Fairview -- With a late push, the Cresta Verde Mountaineers was able to sneak-in and set-up a one-and-done matchup against #1 seed Kurizo Hoopers in Season 26's playoffs.

Last week, they were up against each other and the Hoopers dealt them a 101-84 beating.

Frederick Rosales led the Hoopers with 38 points to counter Renald Geonanga's monster game with 38 points and 19 rebounds.

The difference however was that all five starters for Hoopers scored in double figures complimented by Toufic Benhoussa with 22 points. Moises Mora had 15 points and 11 rebounds while Giedris Sebeziovas had 10 points and 19 boards.

The Mountaineers had more rebounds (+3), assists (+8) but only made 1-17 from beyond compared to Hoopers 9-27 treys that is the ultimate difference in a steady flow of game.


With just a point differential separating the two, Cresta Verde Mountaineers is trying to fend-off Zennings for that fourth and final playoff spot.

The odds were against the Mountaineers as they face formidable Manila All-Stars, albeit the last and to be relegated team, while Zennings faced Miscellaneous but with two injured star players.

Everybody is looking closely at this matchup as it's the closest battle for fourth in awhile.

In the first quarter, the Mountaineers were trailing 29-28 against All-Stars. Zennings were on their way to a rout with a 28-15 scoring in the opening salvo.

The Mountaineers up the ante in the second scoring 36 to 26 leading 66-54 at the half. Zennings meanwhile 'shutdown' Miscellaneous with just 7 points output leading 48-22 at the break.

Mountaineers scored a point more (21-20) in the third leading by 10 entering the fourth. Although the All-Stars made a furious rally scoring 37 points compared to the Mountaineers 30 in the final quarter, the Mountaineers end of victorious 115-112 away from home.

The guards made sure to win this one as Teodosio Amante poured in 38 points while Marion Pacete had 31 points with 9 assists.

Charlie Contreras led the All-Stars with 30 points and 10 rebounds while Giordano Zarattini scored 25.

It was a high-scoring affair with almost identical statistics but the Mountaineers had 6 more three point field goals than the All-Stars.

Zennings was determined to grab the fourth seed as they played all-out to destroy Miscellaneous and ended up with a -13 PD but Mountaineers still managed to have -5 to advance in the playoffs.

"I guess we're still a formidable team, we are happy to advance and hopefully make some noise!" GM Nicolo Maro exclaimed.

The Mountaineers will face #1 seed Kurizo Hoopers - they're 0-4 against this team with an average of 15 point differential. The spread is set at -9.5 for the Hoopers.
