Special Assistant to the President Sec. Bong Go put on another superb marksmanship, exploding for 47 points as Malacañang-Philippine Sports Commission drubbed also-ran Armed Forces of the Philippines, 87-69, and kept its playoff bid for the last semis berth in the 2nd UNTV Cup Executive Face-Off on Sunday at the Pasig City Sports Center.
Go’s 47-point output shattered the league’s best of 44 points which the Davao executive himself registered in the team’s 105-79 romp over the GSIS Furies just a week ago.
More than the individual honor he achieved, Go was happy that the Kamao are still in contention for the last semis berth as they improved to 2-3.
AFP’s defeat was its fifth straight in the annual event presented by UNTV through its president and CEO Daniel Razon. It offers P1 million to the chosen charity of the champion team.
Meantime, Judiciary and Senate boosted their own semis bids after posting contrasting wins in the event exclusive for public servants.
Pampanga MTC Judge Wendell Ramitere erupted for 30 points as the Judiciary Magis clobbered the GSIS Furies, 108-50, for their fourth win in five starts.
Also improving to a 4-1 card are the Senate Sentinels, who downed the DOJ Boosters, 76-72.
In his finest game so far, Sen. Sonny Angara led the Sentinels with 22 points, while Sen. Joel Villanueva and Warren Tan combined for 22 points as they helped eliminate the Boosters.
