Mapua B edges Arellano

MANILA, Philippines - Mapua B leaned on Fil-Jordanian rookie Yousif Taja’s 23-point output as it stunned Arellano A, 67-62, to enhance its bid in the fifth Fr. Martin Collegiate Open Cup at the Far Eastern U gym.

University of the Philippines drew inspiration from the comebacking Magi Sison from Smart Gilas Pilipinas as it routed AMA Computer U, 84-49, to stay in the hunt in the event backed by Molten and organized by Ato Badolato, Joey Lim and Kurt de Guzman.
