LA TRINIDAD, Benguet – The Assembly of God joined the other top seeds in the semis when it routed Sacred Heart, 91-63, last Tuesday, July 25, at the San jose Gym, here.
Earlier, Caliking Atok Youth Group, Wesleyans and the La Trinidad, Benguet International Baptist Church (LTBIBC), as expected, dumped their respective quarterfinal rivals to barge in the semifinals of the 5th season of the Laity Cup.
Caliking, the 2nd seed, eliminated 7th Latter Day Saints, 92-83; 3rd seed Wesleyans defeated the 6th seed Holy Knights, 88-85; while 4th seed LTBIBC survived fifth seeded Don Bosco Boys, 90-88, last July 20 to all advance to the next round.
Meanwhile, the fourth Inter-office tournament is set to open August 3 at the San Jose Gym with a new format. While the usual quarterfinal round still allows top seeded teams to have twice to beat advantage, the semifinals and the finals, however, will be best of three affairs.
Teams, returning or new, are required to submit line-up galleries at 5:00 of July 27 at the San Jose Gym.
