\nThe Feds and CUC downed their respective opponents in contrasting fashions as action in the 2014 IT&E-DYS Inter-Government Basketball League resumed Wednesday night at the Gilbert C. Ada Gymnasium.<\/p>\n

Monday\u2019s matches were called off because of the Cultural Day holiday. The Judiciary-CHC and DCCA-DPS games will be rescheduled at a later date.<\/p>\n

At the resumption of the league, the Feds did not put much effort in coasting to an 88-44 victory over CHC to nail its third win in as many games, while CUC escaped with a 73-70 decision against Customs to barge in the win column.<\/p>\n

The Feds used its size advantage to the hilt, opening up with a 10-0 run as CHC could not find its mark. Rocel Cariaso made CHC\u2019s first basket of the game with a corner jumper in the 5:58 mark of the opening period. <\/p>\n

From there, the Feds scored in bunches, while CHC\u2019s points come in trickles bridging the first and second quarters. A Leo Apelo 3-pointer, after four tries, gave the Feds its first double-digit lead, 28-8, 5:07 to go in the second canto. The Feds were never threatened after that.<\/p>\n

Apelo paced the Feds with 23 points, while Ronnel Gamboa and J. Sablan added 15 and 13 markers, respectively.<\/p>\n

Cariaso was the lone CHC player in double digits with 13, while Jack Palacios scattered 8 points.<\/p>\n

Earlier, CUC showed endgame poise in outlasting Customs, 70-73.<\/p>\n

Holding on to a slim 68-67 advantage, Iramk Simada buried a 3-pointer to give CUC some cushion with 2:27 left in the fourth period. Don Teregeyo\u2019s split free throw and a Don Brennan twinner had Customs threatening at 70-71 with less than one minute left in the game clock.<\/p>\n

Customs had a number of chances to regain the lead but its shots failed to hit the mark. Tony Diaz then scored the insurance basket for CUC for a 73-70 breathing room that turned out to be the final tally, as Customs again could not score on its offensive set.<\/p>\n

Diaz finished with a game-high 27 points, while Robert Lieto, Juan Camacho, and Oscar Sablan combined for 29 markers for CUC, which improved to 1-1.<\/p>\n

Brennan led Customs\u2019 losing cause with his 14, while Jack Cepeda and Teregeyo contributed 13 and 11, respectively.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the Feds will shoot for its fourth straight win when its faces DCCA in Monday\u2019s 6:30pm first game, while Customs takes on Judiciary at 8pm.<\/p>\n
