Talisay faces Dumaguete

MANILA, Philippines — MJAS Zenith-Talisay, on track toward sweeping the elimination round, takes on Dumaguete while Tubigon Bohol shoots for a second straight win when it meets KCS Mandaue in the Chooks-to-Go Pilipinas VisMin Super Cup today at the Alcantara Civic Center in Cebu.

Already assured of a twice-to-beat incentive in the playoffs, the Aquastars (8-0) want no let-up in the 7 p.m. tussle against the skidding Warriors (1-5).

At 3 p.m., the Mariners (1-6) try to ride the momentum of their breakthrough win over Tabogon last week in a bid to upset the second-running Computer Specialists (5-2).

Veterans Paolo Hubalde, Patrick Cabahug and Val Acuña will banner Talisay with homegrown young guns Jaymar Gimpayan and Darrell Shane Menina also expected to deliver.

Gimpayan recorded a double-double of 19 points and 12 rebounds as Talisay survived Mandaue over the weekend, 81-73.
