It was a give and take in the last quarter despite a big lead by Blue Haus in the first half.<\/p>\n<p>Vizion managed to slow down Blue Haus\u2019 offense and tried to mount a comeback with back-to-back shots by Fradel Sedillo and Dindo Pablo. It was anyone\u2019s game in the final minutes but a clutch three-pointer by Blue Haus\u2019 Melvin Capalad and a field goal by Junar Guiab stole the close win from Vizion.<\/p>\n<p>Blue Haus\u2019 Tony Diaz made 19 points, Richard Peredo put up 18 markers, and Brendon Talania collected 15 points. Meanwhile, Vizion\u2019s Jeff Galvez had a game high 21 markers, and Pablo assisted with 16.<\/p>\n<p>JSN also won against Vizion, 77-65, but lost to Legends, 67-65.<\/p>\n<p>In their game against JSN, Vizion was once again at the cusp of making a comeback but was ultimately shut down at the last quarter.<\/p>\n<p>JSN had a big second quarter lead, 40-27, despite trailing by 1, 16-17, in the first quarter, but Vizion didn\u2019t give up and tried to close the gap by just 13 points at the end of the third quarter. However, JSN\u2019s Jhun Tabora tore through the paint and had a game-high 25 points and dashed Vizion\u2019s hope for a comeback.<\/p>\n<p>Jawn Joyner was right behind him with 12 points, while Bernard Montano had 9 markers. For Vizion, Rodney Catalla tried to lead them with his 18 points to no avail, while Leo Itaas made do with 8 points.<\/p>\n<p>In the last makeup game of the regular season, Priority Care conceded to Easy Riders when they didn\u2019t show up in the continuation of their game last Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>The playoffs were set to begin this week, but due to the Tropical Storm Bolaven it has been postponed until further notice.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Blue Haus 83 \u2013<\/strong> Diaz 19, Peredo 18, Talania 15, Garcia 8, Esdrelon 8, Capalad 7, Atiogue 6, Guiab 2.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vizion 79 \u2013<\/strong> Galvez 21, Pablo 16, Catalla 10, L.
