Skipper Jancork Cabahug erupted for 32 points, 15 of them he scored in the second quarter that set the tone for the 24-point rout as Mandaue clinched the number one seeding in the division after finishing the initial phase with a clean 5-0 (win-loss) card.
Consolacion took the second quarterfinal seat in the division after blasting Tudela, 123-58, while Liloan ended its campaign with a 90-77 over Pilar.
Aside from Mandaue and Consolacion, Bogo City and Bantayan have already earned quarterfinal slots in the North Division Bracket 3.
Final elimination round games in the North Division Bracket 3 were to be played last night at the Balamban Sports Complex.
In the South Division Bracket 3, Toledo City dispatched Badian, 87-68, while Dumanjug dumped Algeria at the Barba Sports Complex in Toledo.
The win allowed Dumanjug to forge a three-way tie at second place with Badian and Barili.
Barili went on to earn the final quarterfinal slot in the division owing to its superior tie-break quotient at 1.041. Dumanjug had 1.012 and Badian had 0.946.
