Mapua keeps pace atop NCAA Season 99

c/o GMA and NCAA

Mapua is at the cusp of locking in the top seed with an 84-75 victory over Arellano in NCAA Season 99 men's basketball action at the FiloilEcoOil Centre in San Juan on Friday afternoon.

The win moves the Cardinals to a 14-3 record, and with a victory against Jose Rizal University on Wednesday, they would be able to clinch the top overall seed in the postseason, something that has evaded Randy Alcantara as its head coach.

Marc Cuenco led the way with seventeen points, four rebounds, four assists, and a couple of steals, as the former Brave got one over on the Chiefs. The San Fernando, Pampanga native shared to the media after the game, "Role ko is punan ko kakulangan ni Clint and Paolo like shooting, extra passes."

Escamis finished with fifteen points, while Hernandez added thirteen markers.

Lorenz Capulong had a career night for the Chiefs with 22 points, as Arellano dropped their fourteenth defeat in sixteen games
