SHOWING why they are tipped as one of the title favorites, the debuting Mandaue City cagers dumped Consolacion Sarok, 93-72, in the North Division Bracket 1 of the Cebu Governor’s Cup 21-&-Under Inter-Cities and Municipalities Basketball Tournament at the Tudela Sports Complex of Camotes Island, Cebu last Friday night.
Consolacion started hot and took a 24-16 lead. The lead ballooned to 48-37 before Jancork Cabahug, Alje Mendez and Froilan Mangubat went to work as they connived for 18 points in a torrid third quarter run that gave Mandaue a 63-58 lead with one quarter left to play.
Cabahug then unloaded 10 of his game-high 32 points, Mendez dumped eight of his 20 points in the payoff period that helped Mandaue seal the 21-point demolition.
Marco Panta led Consolacion with 11 points.
