The Panthers, meanwhile, got off to a rolling start with a 78-69 win over the Tigers.
Sharpshooting Yasser Magdara and Stephen Sanchez led the Panthers with 12 points apiece while Neil Buot and Aljhune Areja both added 11.
The duo of Sean Povadora and Dharryl Balabas, on the other hand, combined for 54 points in the Stallions’ 96-80 beatdown of the Sharks.
