Mapua Cardinals Reign over PCU Dolphins

Kelvin de la Pena, the previous season's mvp, took charge when it mattered most delivering key baskets in the final period to beat the tough PCU Dolphins 77-71.

Dela Pena scored seven of his 12 points in the fourth quarter as they endured the run of the dolphins.

Coach Leo Isaac told reporters that he was waiting for someone to take charge and he was glad that Kelvin responded to the challenge.

“It was a big factor that Beau Belga and Leimar Navarro also got into foul trouble, so we took advantage of it,” Isaac also pointed out.

In the first game for the seniors, Jose Rizal Bombers barged into the win column as they beat College of St. Benilde Blazers 75-67. Sena topscored with 21 points.
