Results from Day 6: Final 4 Cast Clears Up

The Final Four cast is just about set in the BEST Center SBP/Passerelle twin tournament after last weekend’s games at the Don Bosco campus.

In the SBP division, Sacred Heart School-Jesuit (SHSJ) and the University of San Carlos North Campus (USC NC) recorded a sweep of their elimination round games to grab the top spot in their respective groups. The defending champions SHSJ Eagles used a third quarter spurt to outlast USC South Campus, 39-26. USC North overcame an undermanned but fighting Don Bosco-A squad in scoring a 36-27 win. The Eagles (3-0) will face Don Bosco-A (2-1) in the cross-over semifinals while USC NC (3-0) goes up against sister school USC South (2-1) in the other match-up.

In the Passerelle division, SHSJ scored its fifth straight win over an upset-conscious USC NC-B squad, 45-33, to take solo leadership of Group A over idle University of Cebu (UC). With the win, SHSJ grabbed a Final Four slot, with their clash against UC determining the top seed of Group A. In other Group A play, the Cebu Institute of Technology (CIT) scored its first win against three losses with a trashing of Don Bosco-B, 70-25. USC South won its second game in four games with a rout of BRIGHT Academy, 98-18. In the Group B game played in the Passerelle division, PAREF Springdale closed out its elimination round with its second straight win after three straight losses, defeating Blessed John Seminary (BJS), 83-42 at the Springdale Gym. Springdale ended with a 2-3 record, its best performance in either a BEST Center or CYBL tournament. BJS closed its tournament at 1-4.

SHSJ (5-0) and UC (4-0) look poised to grab the Final Four slots in Group A, while USC North (5-0) has already nabbed the top spot of Group B. The second Final Four slot in Group B will be decided on Day 7 when University of Southern Philippines Foundation (USPF) (3-1) faces Don Bosco-A (2-2) in a do-or-die game.

The cross-over semifinals will be played at the Capitol Parish Gym on September 30, while the finals will be played on October 4 also at the Capitol Parish Gym.
