Lascuña, with earlier rounds of 69-71 in the Asian Tour event, stood at 210 in a tie with two others for 10th place. He also wound up in a three-way deadlock for third in the ICTSI Philippine Open two weeks ago.

Miguel Tabuena carded a 71 for 213  and Mars Pucay rallied with a 68 for 214.  Meanwhile, Juvic Pagunsan missed the halfway cut of the PGA Championship of the Japan Golf Tour in Hyogo with rounds of 76-74 Friday.
