New addition Sabelina secures Mighty Sports' first win in Danny Espiritu Cup



Mighty Sports's new signing Mclean Sabellina helped the defending Danny Espiritu Cup champions take their first win of the season.

Sabellina scored 31 points and contributed 13 rebounds, two assists and three steals to help Mighty beat Globalport, 100-89 this past Saturday at the EAC Gym.

Mighty never looked back after an Edrick Ferrer triple to snatch the lead from the Batang Pier, from an 11-12 deficit to a 14-12 lead that would be able to stretch to as large as 14 points.

Ferrer would finish with 14 points while Nino Marquez added 17 of his own.

Globalport's defeat meant that they remain winless after five matches in the tournament, even with the tournament-high 42 points from Erwin Sta. Maria in this particular game.

In the second game of the doubleheader, MOB Alliance used a 21-0 blast in the third quarter to put away Expert Global Solutions, 84-59 to move them into a tie with Skyforce with an unblemished record after four matches.

Richie Melencio led MOB with 15 points and 8 rebounds, while Eric Sugitan contributed a double-double of 10 points and 11 rebounds, as they dropped EGS to a 1-3 record, with the lone win coming in via forfeit.
