Martech Ol\u2019Aces defeated an Ali\u2019i team for a second time in less than a week in the 2023 Michelob Ultra Cup Men\u2019s Islandwide Basketball League last Tuesday at the Gilbert C. Ada Gymnasium.<\/p>\n

After beating Ali\u2019i last Saturday in the 2nd Annual Saipan Centennial Lions Basketball League, Martech Ol\u2019Aces doubled up on their rivals, 79-71, in the first game of the Mich Ultra Cup.<\/p>\n

Ol\u2019Aces and Ali\u2019i were in a dogfight all game long before the latter lost steam in the end as the former remained perfect in the young season at 2-0. Ali\u2019i dropped to a 1-1 record.<\/p>\n

Airson Atan led all scorers with 20 points, while Preston Basa and Riley Brungard chipped in 14 points apiece.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Jonel Broncano scored 15 points before fouling out late in the game for Ali\u2019i. Brendon Talania also added a dozen in the loss.<\/p>\n

In the second game, New Chang Ming Market survived being double-booked in the Mich Ultra Cup and SCLC caging by beating Unity Trade, 92-81.<\/p>\n

Gino Asauo scattered 27 points for New Chang Ming Market (2-0), while Mark Ferrer fired a game-high 32 points for Unity Trade (1-1) in the loss.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Last Sunday, CK Saints (1-1) blasted Bridge Capital LLC (0-2) in the opener, 120-55. In the second game, Socho (1-1) nipped Roil Soil OG (0-2), 83-81, thanks to a last-second shot by Henry Aguon.<\/p>\n
