Meanwhile, the third-seeded 1990 Titans also scored a 78-68 win over the 1986 Mighty Geeks as Hector Lawas tallied 20 markers while Engel Sievert helped the cause out by scoring 14.
And finally, the 1988 Barakos advanced to the Final Four after they ousted the 1992 Little Rascals, 90-77.
Edmund Odulio and Dindo Sausa were the catalysts for the victory as they waxed hot from the field and scored 29 and 27 points, respectively. Bonito Zanoria also provided some much-needed firepower by scoring 17.
