Customer Appreciation Basketball League last Tuesday at the Gillette Multipurpose Gymnasium. <\/p>\n<p>TDI outgunned Joeten 2 in the first three quarters to build a 58-33 advantage and withstand Joeten\u2019s rally in the fourth. Top Development scored 20-plius points in the opening period for a 22-13 lead and had 18 apiece in the second and third, while Joeten 2\u2019s offense continued to drop, as it made only 11 and 9 markers.<\/p>\n<p>The 25-point margin going into the final canto was enough for TDI to overcome Joeten 2\u2019s 24-point output in the fourth frame.<\/p>\n<p>Sean Rabasto led TDI with his 22 points, while Jerome Reyes added 12. Darwin Barbo and Raymond Velasco had 9 apiece.<\/p>\n<p>John Paul Cruz paced Joeten 2 with his 20 points, making 11 of them in the final quarter in an attempt to help his team catch up with TDI, but his efforts fell short. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Joeten 1 89, Coca-Cola 49<\/strong><br \/>\nIn the second game, Joeten 1 walloped Coca-Cola.<\/p>\n<p>Joeten leaned on a 20-5 scoring spurt in the first quarter to set up the 40-point win.<\/p>\n<p>Coca-Cola never got out from the deep hole, as it still failed to hit double figures in the second and third periods. Coca-Cola was held to 7 markers in the second and 9 in the third, allowing Joeten 1 to open a huge 69-21 advantage.<\/p>\n<p>It was game over after that, as Joeten 1 let its guard down in the final quarter, giving Coca-Cola a chance to score garbage points.<\/p>\n<p>Kevin Kabiriel, Ernest Duenas, and Patrick Rotap delivered for Joeten 1 after registering 21, 18, and 16 points, respectively.<\/p>\n<p><strong>First Game<\/strong><br \/>\nTDI 66\u2014Rabasto 22, Reyes 12, Barbo 9, Velasco 9, Barros 5, Arreza 5, Pollisco 2.<br \/>\nJoeten 2 57\u2014Cruz 20, Agulto 12, Mafnas 8, Madrid 4, Montoya 4, William 2, Doria 2, Garcia 2.<br \/>\nScoring by quarters: 22-13, 40-24, 58-33, 66-57<\/p>\n<p><strong>Second Game<\/strong><br \/>\nJoeten 1 89\u2014Kabiriel 21, Duenas 18, Rotap 16, Lauron 9, Maratita 8, Sabile 7, Lilles 3, Quichocho 2.<br \/>\nCoca-Cola 49\u2014Capalad 20, Felix 10, San Nicolas 5, Estoque 4, Bisanen 4, Tammy 2.<br \/>\nScoring by quarters: 20-5, 44-12, 69-21, 89-49.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Top Development Inc. defeated Joeten 2, 66-57, during the first game in the 2018 JP&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":308432,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[4963,4964,4264],"class_list":["post-308431","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sports","tag-first-game","tag-second-game","tag-top-development"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/308431","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/24"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=308431"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/308431\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/308432"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=308431"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=308431"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=308431"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
