\"The\u00a0 Loving Hands Daycare and the R-Rebels triumphed over separate opponents in last Saturday’s Blue Haus Invitational Basketball League make-up matches at the Garapan Basketball Court.<\/p>\n

The R-Rebels mopped the floor with Star Water (0-4), 88-57, in the curtain raiser in Division A and improved their record to 3-1, while Loving Hands stamped its fourth win in five games after defeating NVM (2-2), 83-72, in the late pairing in Division B.<\/p>\n

The R-Rebels are in second place in Division A behind QQ Rent A Car (4-1). DLX (3-1), Mobil (1-2), and Ashley’s (1-3) complete the group. Loving Hands leads Division B, ahead of Wanted Sponsor (3-2), Saipan Hardware (3-2), Cargo Express (2-2), and Hip Hop Thunder (1-4),<\/p>\n

Star Water’s Ernie Moises and Joy Dayrit chipped in seven points apiece for a slim 25-24 lead after the opening 10 minutes of Saturday’s opener. However the R-Rebels kicked it into high gear during the second canto and opened up a 46-35 margin at midpoint. Trevor Ogumoro led the R-Rebels’ charge with eight points in the second canto.<\/p>\n

The R-Rebels continued to play solid defense after the break and contained their opponents to just seven markers in the third quarter for a daunting 68-42 margin, heading into the last period. Eight different R-Rebels contributed on offense in the third frame.<\/p>\n

It remained all R-Rebels in the fourth quarter, as Star Water simply fell too far behind.<\/p>\n

Marlon De Dios scrambled for nine points late in the game for Star Water, but it was not enough. He and Edwin Santos teamed up for 24 points, while R-Rebels’ Ogumoro and Syl Teregeyo turned in 14 apiece.<\/p>\n

In the second game, Loving Hands Daycare buried three early treys for a 20-19 edge in the first quarter; two came from Sonny Lerio who led the squad with 8 points in the opening frame.<\/p>\n

Lerio then banged in two more threes early in the second quarter and added 9 more points to his total as Loving Hands pulled ahead at halftime, 47-33. Melvin Cadiang and Jessie Mina combined for 14 points to lead NVM.<\/p>\n

NVM nailed four from behind the arc in the third quarter, however Lerio kept his hot hand for another 8 points to help maintain a 65-53 advantage, heading into the payoff period.<\/p>\n

James Abuy then added a pair of three balls early in the fourth quarter, helping Loving Hands roll to the easy win.<\/p>\n

Lerio finished with a game-high 29 points, while Rocyl Ritual managed 21 on the short end for NVM.<\/p>\n
