Chinese-Taipei B pushes RP 5 to the limit |
|
By Frank Calapre, Correspondent
Even against a second rate team, the Powerade Team Pilipinas had to
dig deeper into its bag of tricks before escaping with a hard-earned
94-90 win over Chinese-Taipei-B on Saturday in the
31st William Jones Cup at the Hsinchuang gym in Taiwan.
It was just good that the Filipinos were able to
build an 11-point lead, 92-81, going into the final 2:56 of the
match where the good defensive ploy of the Chinese limited them to
only two points.
