The Galeries Tower showed no signs of rust, cruising past PSP, 74-39, to stay unbeaten in the 2025 Women’s Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (WMPBL) invitational tournament at the Enderun College Gym.

The Skyrisers, who last played on January 29 in a win over Solar Home, made the most of a two-week break, returning to dominate a struggling Lady Gymers squad for their third straight victory in the tournament.

Former two-time UAAP MVP Ambie Almazan powered the Skyrisers with a double-double of 11 points and 13 rebounds, along with two assists and three steals, as they handed PSP a 35-point drubbing.

Anna Buendia led the Galeries in scoring with 13 points on an impressive 71 percent shooting from the field, while Princess Fabruada also contributed 11 points.

The Skyrisers’ suffocating defense limited the Lady Gymers to just 14 points in the first half, setting the tone for a lopsided affair. They then intensified their attack after the break, pulling away for a dominant victory and extending their unbeaten run.

Fatima Quiapo was the lone double-digit scorer for the 0-4 PSP, finishing with 10 points, two assists and two rebounds. Meanwhile, Jeedel Bartolo struggled from beyond the arc, shooting just 1-of-7 and settling for nine points.

In other games, the Philippine Navy and the Pilipinas Aguilas both secured back-to-back victories in the tournament.

The Lady Sailors, backed by Kalos PH and Go for Gold, used a dominant third quarter to pull away from Far Eastern University, securing a 76-61 victory.

Gemma Miranda continued to build momentum for Navy, now 4-1 in the standings, with 18 points, five rebounds, three assists, and four steals. Janelle Mendoza recorded a double-double with 15 points and 12 rebounds.

Afril Bernardino delivered another all-around performance, finishing with 15 points, nine rebounds, five assists, four steals, and seven blocks. Andrea Tongco added 11 points, six assists, and four boards. (ABS-CBN News)
