UCAL-PGFLEX
MANILA, Philippines — John Paul Mendy put on another stellar performance and University of Batangas kept its flickering semis bid alive with a 100-71 dumping of the Philippine Women’s University yesterday in the UCAL-PGFlex Linoleum 7th Season at the Paco Arena in Manila.
The 6-foot-8 Mendy erupted for 32 points on 12-of-16 shooting as the Brahmans closed out the two-round elims with an 8-5 record, tying host Diliman College, Manila Central University, Immaculada Concepcion College and defending champion Centro Escolar University.
The CEU Scorpions made the semis race more complicated by clobbering the ICC Bluehawks, 96- 79, in the second game.
CEU’s Israel Friday was equally impressive, logging in 42 points and 29 boards one of the dominant performances in years.
