MANILA, Philippines — Undeterred BRT Sumisip Basilan-St. Clare spoiled Marinerong Pilipino’s sweep aspiration, fashioning out a wire-to-wire 74-60 win to forge a rubber match in the PBA D-League Foundation Cup best-of-three finals yesterday at the Cuneta Astrodome. Taking their stinging 69-59 Game One loss to heart, the Saints came out with their guns ablaze, unleashing a 25-11 start to set the tone of the match early. Team captain Joshua Fontanilla added 14 markers and five assists, Malian big man Mohammed Pare chipped in a 12-10 double-double while Jhaps Bautista logged in 11 points for the Saints who dashed the Skippers’ sweep bid and forced a decider on Monday over at the Paco Arena. It’s not over until it’s over so we just took that chance to salvage this win. I reminded the guys to make the most out of this opportunity and it’s good that we took care of business,” he added.
