GENERAL SANTOS CITY—Host MP Warriors of GenSan inaugurated the new GMP Sports Complex in grand style by downing the Ilocos Sur CS Tigers, 80-75, at the start of the General Santos City Leg of the SMC Liga Pilipinas Conference V last Wednesday.

The sixth-ranked MP Warriors of Sarangani Rep. Manny Pacquiao earned a point for the win and closed the gap with the CS Tigers of Gov. Luis “Chavit” Singson and coach Johnedel Cardel to three points for the fifth and last Super Leg slot, 8-11.

“I told the team that we can still make the Super Leg,” said winning Coach Arvin Bonleon. “What’s important is we control our destiny and it began with today’s win against the Tigers.”

Dondon Mendoza played his best game of the tournament so far with 22 points and seven rebounds. Louie Medalla backed him up with three triples en route to 20 points.
