TNT KaTropa survived a late scare as it outlasted GlobalPort, 102-98, to clinch a quarterfinal berth in the PBA Philippine Cup on Wednesday night at the Cuneta Astrodome.
The Texters were comfortably ahead by 21 points at 94-73 when they saw the Batang Pier make a huge comeback, heaving a sigh of relief after the rally fell just short.
Rookie starter Rogery Pogoy continued to repay the coaching staff’s faith in him as he tallied a team-high 20 points and four boards in 29 minutes as the Texters held on to their sixth win in 10 games.
Troy Rosario also made up for a late offensive foul with a big defensive stand on Stanley Pringle and two charities that preserved the result.
