Coach Austin Rosa topped Wreckage with 23 points with Randy Vicoy adding 19 points and Petey Rubio finishing with 11 points.

Greg Ragsac added 11 points and Kanoa Chung finished with 10 points.
Vhincel Perpose came up with six points on two treys in the third quarter to pull Tropang-L from a 24-28 halftime deficit to outgun KAC, 18-13 in the period.
But KAC answered with a 13-12 final period, led by Spam Lindsey bucketing seven points, including a trey, for the two.
