AFP, PNP seek grudge rematch, go for crucial win in UNTV Cup

MANILA, Philippines — Top seed Armed Forces and second-ranked Philippine National Police hope to seal a grudge title rematch as they go for big wins at the start of their respective best-of-three semis series Sunday in the seventh UNTV Cup at the Pasig Sports Center.

The AFP Cavaliers collide with the National Housing Authority Builders at 3 p.m. with the former hoping to sustain their winning run despite a month-long hiatus after advancing outright to the semis for topping the two-phase elims.

On the other hand, the PNP Responders collide with the Senate Defenders at 5 p.m. with PNP determined to settle an old score with the defending champion.

The Responders likewise advanced to the semis automatically after sporting the second-best record in the tournament organized by UNTV president and CEO Dr. Daniel Razon for public servants.
