With three games left as of presstime last night before the play-off round starts, the placing for the Magic Four had been arranged with Mesekiu to face Ngerbeched and Kayangel to meet Airai.
PCC has still a game left against Ngaraard tomorrow but it has already earned the No. 1 spot as early as two weeks ago and taking the pennant in the process. PCC’s current standing is 19-1. It suffered its lone defeat to Kayangel in the second round of the three-round-robin regular season.
Kayangel took the second spot with its 16-5 record as it closed the regular season by overwhelming Ngaraard, 15-5, on Friday night April 20.
Airai settled for No. 3 on the strength of two consecutive wins in three days beating Ngerbeched, 5-1, on April 19 before it struggled against Ngardmau, 7-4, last Saturday.
With those two victories the Aces closed out the regular season with a 15-6 record.
Ngerbeched took the No. 4 position with a 13-7 card. Ngerneched’s last remaining game of the regular season against Ngardmau tomorrow will not matter on the play-off match-ups.
The result of the other game last Saturday showed Peches winning over Ngaraard, 18-3.
