MANILA, Philippines — Dylan Darbin rediscovered his touch in time for a big push as reigning champion Centro Escolar University got back at Olivarez College after two overtimes, 98-92, at the start of the second round of elims in the UCAL-PGFlex Linoleum 7th Season Monday at the Paco Arena in Manila.
Hardly a factor in the team’s previous wins, the six-foot guard put on a shooting clinic, scattering 39 points, including the team’s last four points from the free throw line to avenge their 86-76 defeat to the Sealions in their previous match.
Darbin got ample support from Israel Friday who produced 20 points and 33 rebounds and CJ Singson who added 14 points.
A big letdown for the Sealions was the usually high-scoring Hakim Njiasse who was held to three points.
The Scorpions could have won the match right in the first overtime but Darbin missed a free throw with 18 ticks left with the score tied at 83-all.
It was the league’s first double overtime match.
