MANILA, Philippines—Their Filoil EcoOil Preseason Cup stint may not have ended the way they wanted it to but the Jose Maria College Kings will head back to Mindanao in high spirits. The Kings, who figured in an aggregate two-game series with Far Eastern University, were entered in the stepladder quarterfinals by virtue of being the qualifier of the VisMin division. JMC lost the series after losing huge in Game 1, 96-65, in a lopsided affair. They would, however, end their series on a high note with only a 10-point loss against one of the UAAP's juggernauts, 90-80.
