Holy Cross of Davao College Crusaders turned into their defense to demolish Agro Industrial Foundation College Sailors, 103 - 81 and notch their second win in the 6th Gaisano South Cup College Division 1 Sunday night at the jam-packed GS Skygym.
The Crusaders quickly went into full court pressure defense right from the opening tip off that hounded the Sailors who had a hard time to break the pesky defensive alignment.
Both teams managed to trade baskets in the opening canto where Holy Cross only up by 1, 21 - 20 after ten minutes of play.
But the wards of Adel Gino Nobleza broke away in the second period converting mostly turnover points as they forced the Sailors to turn the ball over several times.
Holy Cross outscored Agro 34 - 16 in the second quarter en route to a 55 - 36 half time advantage that put the Sailors at bay.
Arthur Japson proved his worth for the 2004 champion Holy Cross team, playing well in both ends of the floor.
Japson, a former Jose Rizal University Bomber in the NCAA, drilled in 18 points, including 13 first half points on top of seven boards and two steals.
Bryan Jones Rosete and Kirk James Blanco who had 15 and 13 points respectively also came out big time for Holy Cross which will next face Jose Maria College on Sunday at 6:30 p.m.
Eugene Torres who was ejected of the game in the 3:03 mark of the pay off period had 29 points for Agro which dropped to 1 - 1 win loss record.
Agro hot shot Genry Curso had 22 points.
Jose Maria College will face Rizam Memorial College Bulldogs on friday at 6:45 p.m.
The tournament is sponsored by Unilever, P&G, Abbott and Sunsport.
