The Batch 1990 trio of Vince Castro, ex-pro Leode Garcia and Rowel Sumalinog proved too much to handle for Batch 1997 as they combined for a whopping 66 points in the title-clinching victory.

Castro finished with 26 points while Garcia and Sumalinog had 20 markers each to push Batch 1990 to the top.
