Magnolia turns back Terrafirma comeback, clinches quarterfinal berth
MAGNOLIA survived the hot-shooting Stephen Holt and a gutsy stand by Terrafirma, 108-100, to claim the third playoffs berth in the PBA Philippine Cup Friday at the Philsports Arena.
The Hotshots went on a telling 7-0 finishing kick inside the final two minutes including five straight by the hurting Mark Barroca to take fight out of the Dyip, 106-98, with 54 seconds to go.
