Regina Jurado fired 12 points including the clincher as Jonna Perdido produced the same amount of points and Angge Poyos chipped in 13, with the trio stepping up to fill the void left by Laure, who emerged as their top scorer last season.

Alyssa Solomon pumped 16 points for the Lady Bulldogs, who seemed to have woken up on the wrong side of the bed, not playing to their usual level of play in the past two seasons.
