The game started slowly, with SJCR taking an early 11-6 lead over LHCA in the first quarter. Two teams did not start intensely, yet one team gradually gained dominance.
Fast-and-furious games start in the early 2nd quarter as the score gets to 12-15, making it easier for LHCA to catch up to SJCR's early lead.
However, at the end of the 2nd quarter, SJCR remained dominant as they got an 18-36 with intense moves and excellent teamwork.
SJCR maintained their dominance in the 3rd quarter with a score of 24-63 up to the finals with 32-63.
โYung connection ng mga bawat player na kakampi namin, tapos yung bigayan ng bola. Yung iba kasi is crocodileโฆ Siguro, kulang na rin sa training. Kasi ilang beses lang kami ng training, halos mga nasa dalawang beses lang. Hindi kami makapag training ng maayos e," said John Urie Meรฑale, the MVP of LHCA's basketball team.
James Rafael Infante also stated that they only trained 2 times because of frequent typhoons, resulting in difficulties in keeping up in the actual game.
Some players were injured but still managed to play on the court with perseverance.
