Cebu City, Philippines–The Southwestern University (SWU)-Phinma Cobras are making their way back to the championship round of the Cesafi men’s basketball tournament.

This developed after the Cobras, the champions of this year’s preseason Partner’s Cup, beat the University of San Carlos (USC) Warriors, 65-56, on Tuesday evening, November 12, 2019, at the Cebu Coliseum.

Lamine Thiam led the Cobras with 14 points.

Shaquille Imperial added 11 for the Cobras, who last made it to the championship round in the 2014-2015 season of the Cesafi.
