The Strikers pulled off the win in record-setting fashion as the father and son tandem Marlou and Matthew played together in the 3:13 mark of the final quarter and they finished the job for the Strikers.
For the younger Aquino, it was a dream came true.
“Almost all of the things I learned in basketball came from him,” added Matthew. “We’ve been planning to do this even after I played my last game in the UAAP.”
With Alvin Pasaol back in harness, the Risers of Bataan became more solid up front as they outlasted the Imus Bandera, 65-61.
The star forward from University of the East finished with 20 points and six rebounds.
Binan ripped Marikina, 82-72, in the other game.
