The Bacoor City Agimat put an end to Las Piñas’ dream run following an easy 68-41 victory to rule the South Division and advance to the Finals of the Metro League 17-&-under boys basketball tournament Tuesday night at the Strike Gym in Bacoor City, Cavite.
Mikhail James Gutierrez once again set the pace with 14 points, four rebounds and two assists for the well-rested Bacoor which took an early 23-13 lead.
With Rhyle Richard Melencio and Mark Angelo Torrijos also chipping in 12 and 11 markers, respectively, the Junior Strikers would not be denied of an easy win that catapulted them all the way to the M-League 17-and-under championship of the event with Manila Bulletin as media partner.
With a dominating 27-point win, the Bacoor City Agimat arranged a best-of-three championship showdown with either Quezon City and Caloocan-Arceegee which are to dispute this Saturday the North Division title.
