Racal vented its frustration on Topstar ZC Mindanao for a 102-83 win Tuesday in the 2016 PBA D-League Foundation Cup at JCSGO Gym in Cubao.

Still reeling from their sorry 83-79 defeat to Cafe France last Thursday, the Tile Masters clobbered the Aguilas in the second frame, using  a 29-point explosion to erect a 51-38 halftime lead, which would go as high as 31, 86-55, midway in the fourth.

“We still had a poor start in today’s game. The difference lang is we were able to recover and we had more energy in the second quarter,” said coach Caloy Garcia, as Racal improved to a 2-1 slate.
