MANILA, Philippines - Pharex B Complex withstood Fern-C’s tough challenge, carving out an 85-77 win in the 2010 PBL PG Flex-Erase Placenta Cup yesterday at The Arena in San Juan.

The Fighting Maroons took a 13-point lead early in the payoff period then held off the Ferntastics’ fiery chase at the finish to nail a second win in three starts.

Fern-C waged a rally behind John Wilson’s hot-shooting but went short in its bid, thus, suffering a third loss in a row.

Vic Manuel and Woody Co pumped in clutch shots, negating Wilson’s 32-point explosion.

Ascof Lagundi, Pharex B Complex’s sister team, barged into the win column by downing AddMix, 80-76, in the second game.

Sean Co played a key role for Ascof Lagundi, coming through with a crucial three-point play off Gio Ciriacruz with 37.2 seconds left to play.

Wilson, a former NCAA MVP awardee, was 11-of-21 from the field as he got away with a second straight 30-point performance. He also had seven rebounds, four assists and four steals in 33 minutes.

Former Far Eastern University standout Marlon Adolfo was the surprise topscorer for the Fighting Maroons with 15 points with Manuel adding 14 points and seven rebounds.

Co and Arvie Braganza were two other Pharex players who scored in double figures.
