CEBU CITY, Philippines — Landlite and Davies Paints advanced to the semifinals of the ongoing Cebu Architects Basketball Club (CABC) 6th Corporate Cup last Sunday, June 9, at the Benedicto College gymnasium.

John Terrence Buhawe top-scored for Davies Paints with a double-double outing of 18 points, 13 rebounds, two assists, two blocks, and a steal.
Miguel Cenabre added 17 points, while Zach Elisha Go chipped in 11 points, and Jonas Panerio contributed 10 points. Davies Paints will now square off against No. 2 Boysen Paints in the other semifinal pairing.
None of the Lightstrong AAC Blocks’ players tallied double-digit scores. Mark Paradero and Russ San Mateo each scored nine points in their losing efforts.
The CABC 6th Corporate Cup will skip this coming weekend to celebrate Father’s Day and will hold its semifinals on June 23 at the same venue.
