The Archers thrived on double-digit scores from both players, in addition to Rex Yabut’s 18 points and James Abuy’s 12.
Sharry totaled 12 points, dodging Bruce Berline for his game-saving shot.

Armatech’s Elmer Esdrelon hammered four three-pointers and top scored with 23 points. Ivan De Vero added 16 points, Berline scored eight, and Martin Moreno earned six.
Noel David provided the Archers with seven more points.
The loss was an upset for team Armatech, who led, 56-52 in the third quarter.
Miranda and Esdrelon started the final period with three-pointers while Sharry and Berline fought for the rebound.
Yabut and Abuy’s back-to-back shots pushed the Archers ahead in the closing five minutes.
