Lexmark Stallions Beat Stream Blue Devils, Forged Sudden Death Finals

The winner-take-all CCSC Powerade E-League for Basketball Finals Game 3 between the Lexmark Stallions and Stream Blue Devils is set for this Saturday, November 26 at 2:30 PM. One final game will decide who will bring home the championship trophy as the Stallions forged a sudden death match by tripping the Stream Blue Devils, 55-45, last Sunday in Game 2 of the best-of-three Finals of the tourney. The game will be played at Cebu City Sports Club, Cebu Business Park, Cebu City.

Stream took Game 1, 63-54, and needed just one game to seal the championship crown.

But the Blue Devils failed a repeat of their awesome offense in Game 1 while the Stallions displayed a tremendous fighting spirit and tight defense.

In the game Sunday afternoon, Mervin Balansag scored 13 points, the only player to tally double digit, but he had four teammates chipping in at least six markers.

Stream only scored 20 points in the first half, allowing the Stallions to bring a 29-20 lead into the third quarter.

Stream produced 16 points in the third to catch-up in the third canto but again faltered in the fourth, where it scored just nine points while allowing Lexmark to score 11.

Sylvester Millevo once again led Stream with 17 points.

These has been an exciting season since the League opened in 2005, with the semis and final rounds pushed to the distance. The team that is hungrier to win will definitely take home the championship trophy.

Tara! Laag ta! Witness the exciting game of amateur basketball in Cebu City.
