THE featured matches between the public and private schools in the 2nd Cagayan de Oro Inter-Public School Basketball Tournament had a break-even outcome on Saturday at the Nazareth gym here.
Misamis Oriental General Comprehensive High School (MOGCHS) manhandled guest team Corpus Christi School (CCS) lady Knights, 57-24 in the secondary girls division.
But the Corpus Christi baby Knights buried City Central School (CCS) Stingers alive, 76-4 in the elementary level.
rThe reigning Palarong Pampook secondary girls champion MOGCHS of coach Agustin Yasay Sr. even fielded a battery of new recruits in overpowering the newly-organized lady Knights of rookie coach Catrina June Pong-Biongcog.
rNewcomer Rahmaica Alevas was a big surprise as she led MOGCHS with 12 points.
r“We need a lot of exposures, busa niapil gyud mi para i-explore namo among plus and minus,” said coach Biongcog.
The baby Knights of coach Leo Dagalea, on the other hand, were merciless as they never gave the Stingers of coach Jaypee Jumamoy a breather in the entire game.
rCommissioner Raul Fuentes already warned the Stingers how Dagalea’s boys could be dreadful.
Jumamoy, for his part, used a bunch of rookie fourth graders in his line-up instead of the experienced ones.
rIn other results, Canitoan National High School thrashed Macasandig National High School, 41-22, and Cagayan de Oro National High School routed Patag National High School, 51-39, in the 15-under boys.
Carmen National High School meanwhile drubbed East Gusa National High School, 62-44, in 17-under boys category.
