The victory was the third straight for the Tigresses of coach Cesael De Los Santos, a win that fortified their grip of the top spot as they remain the only unbeaten squad in the eight-team field.


“Every game nag-iimprove na yung teamwork namin at ang maganda meron talagang mga nag-i-step up sa kanilang laro. Meaning unti-unti na silang nakakapag-adjust," said De los Santos after the game.
