The Blackwater Elite shoot for the second outright semifinal berth against the Cagayan Valley Rising Suns today in the PBA D-League Aspirants Cup at Trinity University of Asia Gym.

The Elite (6-2) can finish second behind defending champion NLEX (9-1) with a win at 4 p.m. over the Rising Suns (6-3).
