PHL/OFD/MEMD rebounded mightily to steer the opponent but they were sent on their knees when Willieboy Gimena thwarted three (3) solid 2-point-shots making it 20-31 on the first half of the second quarter but this 11 points margin was more of a challenge for the PHL/OFD/MEMD than a menace.
PHL/OFD/MEMD Team secures the Championship Title for 2015
After rebuilding some momentum, PHL/OFD/MEMD averted a meltdown and survived HEADS with Froilan Espinosa, Jr., Patrick Ramayrat and JR Peralta combined a total of fifteen (15) points of solid acrobatic baskets and hearty three-point-shots overhauling HEADS with 35-34 closing the second quarter of the play.
