PBA Media Bureau</figcaption></figure></div>Nothing-to-lose Columbian Dyip overwhelmed a short-handed Rain Or Shine 100-84 in the PBA Governors&#x27; Cup at Ynares Center in Antipolo on Friday.Ronald Tubid provided the offensive spark the Dyip needed in the first half before Akeem Wright took over and made sure Columbian continued its mastery over the Elasto Painters this season.Wright had 23 points and 12 rebounds, and Tubid added 16 points to assure Columbian’s first victory this conference. Jerramy King was also a factor in the final quarter, finishing with 18 points.The Dyip surged to a 21-point lead early in the first quarter, before the Terence Watson led Elasto Painters chopped to deficit down to 3.But Columbian got its composure back in the second half and never looked back.“We didn&#x27;t wanna lose. We gave up the lead, but we got our defense going,” Wright said. “(Winning) feels good. We didnt want to end the season with a 0-11 record. It&#x27;s good to see getting this win I hope we get another win on Saturday.”Rain Or Shine was already playing minus absentee Raymond Almazan. Adding to its woes was Beau Belga’s sudden exit in the first half after suffering what seemed to be a heel injury.Columbian barged into the win column after 10 games, while handing Rain Or Shine&#x27;s fifth loss in 7 games. The Dyip snapped an 11-game losing streak dating back to the Commissioner&#x27;s Cup and a 25-game skid all the way back to the 2016 Governors&#x27; Cup.<div> The scores:</div>Columbian 100 - Wright 23, King 18, McCarthy 16, Tubid 16, Cahilig 13, Reyes 5, Corpuz 4, Celda 3, Ababou 2, Khobuntin 0, Escoto 0.Rain or Shine 84 - Watson 18, Ahanmisi 16, Norwood 11, Ponferada 9, Yap 8, Belga 7, Washington 6, Borboran 5, Daquioag 4, Nambatac 0, Tiu 0.Quarters: 24-21, 50-39, 68-63, 100-84.(For more sports coverage, visit the<a href="http://sports.abs-cbn.com/"> ABS-CBN Sports website</a>.)
