CASILI outlasted Cabangahan, 64-55, to claim its second straight title in the SK Category A division of the 2015 Mayor Teresa P. Alegrado Cup over at the Tayud Gym in Tayud, Consolacion.
It was a close game at the start until Casili began to pull away in the third as it turned a 34-29 halftime lead into a 50-39 bulge heading to the final canto behind the leadership of Cyril Sabellana, who scored his share of points while keeping his teammates engaged as well.
Sabellana finished with 17 points and was lauded for his efforts as he was named both the Finals MVP.
Braven Padayogdog, the season MVP who came into the game averaging 17.8 points per game, gamely tried to keep his squad in contention with his 21 but ultimately fell short.
In the SK Category B, Jade Goc-ong tallied 25 to push Tilhaong past Garing, 66-60.
Goc-ong finished the season with an average of 15.6 points per outing and was named both the season and finals’ MVP.
The tournament was made possible through the support of Mayor Teresa Alegrado and the efforts of sports chairman, Engr. Nilo Ferraren and sports chairman, Paul Alelu Flores, a former stalwart of the Far Eastern University Tamaraws.
