Batang Gilas veteran RC Calimag erupted for 28 points on an impressive 6-of-11 shooting from the 3-points apart posting six boards, three assists and two steals to help the Greenies turn back the gritty La Consolacion dribblers.

After the first two quarters, the Greenies appeared headed for a big win when they took a 57-38 advantage, but they were jolted in the next frame as the La Consolacion dribblers outscored them 31-11 and led as many as five points in the payoff period.

The Greenies, however, rallied with Calimag shattering a 78-all count with back-to-back 3-point shots the finally restored order on the way to victory in Group A elims of the annual tournament also sponsored by Blackwater Sports, IronCon Builders, Jumbo Plastic Linoleum, Macbeth Underwear, Hapee Toothpaste, MEC Networks and Poly Gloss-Rain or Shine.

Ateneo, meantime, made a triumphant return in the event also backed by Gerry’s Grill, Sumo GI Sheet, Cherrylume, Choi Garden and Molten outlasting San Sebastian College-Recoletos, 81-76, in Group B
