However, results of these games were unavailable at press time.<\/p>\n<p>Adrian De Luna scattered 11 points to lead MHS 9 in the low scoring ballgame, while John Carlo Prado and John Mendoza added 9 and 8 markers, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>Christian Arceo led all scorers with 23 points but failed to get the needed offensive support from the rest of the Kagman crew.<\/p>\n<p>MHS 9 led from the start and even enjoyed a 16-point spread entering the final period but failed to prevent a late scoring surge by Kagman, as the Ayuyus threatened late in the game.<\/p>\n<p>A Dean Mendiola twinner sparked a 16-6 exchange, as the Ayuyus trimmed the Dolphins\u2019 lead to single digit, 32-38, with 1:54 left on the clock.<\/p>\n<p>Arceo scored 14 straight points in that run, including back-to-back 3-point plays to the delight of the Kagman bench.<\/p>\n<p>But that proved to be the Ayuyus\u2019 last stand as they missed easy baskets and committed turnover after turnover down the stretch<\/p>\n<p>A De Luna layup in the 1:32 mark of the fourth period ended MHS\u2019 scoring drought , while Mendoza\u2019s basket with 54 ticks left brought the lead back to 10.<\/p>\n<p>Action in the MISO caging continues tomorrow with MHS junior varsity facing MHS 9 at 4pm and Saipan International School meeting Marianas Baptist Academy in the second match at 5:20pm.
