MANILA, Philippines – Xavier School-Acrocity x Zhoosh shot the lights out in a huge 73-69 Game Two stunner of Hua Siong College of Iloilo-Lamtex Pipes on Wednesday night at PlayTime Filoil Centre in San Juan to force the winner-take-all affair in the Fil-Chinese Athletic Association Inc. (FCAAI) 40s Division Finals.Eldridge Liao proved to be the unlikely hero for Xavier, draining four triples in the fourth quarter, none bigger than his three from way out with 4.4 seconds left that made it a two-possession game and extend the best-of-three series to a decider.Liao actually scored all of his 18 points from downtown which was part of a sizzling 14-of-45 three-point shooting for AAXS which dealt Hua Siong its first ever defeat.<div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/sports/basketball/2025/6/17/bono-yap-star-as-hua-siong-lamtex-inches-closer-to-fcaai-crown-1913">READ: Bono, Yap star as Hua Siong-Lamtex inches closer to FCAAI crown </a></div>Chris Tiu starred for Xavier as he fired nine of his 20 points in the payoff period to couple with his seven rebounds, four assists, and two steals, as Joseph Yeo topped his side with 22 points, six boards, and six dimes before fouling out with 40.7 ticks left.They will try to replicate that hot shooting come Game Three on Friday, still at the same venue.James Yap was the lone bright spot for Hua Siong, coming off the bench to pace their crew with 23 points on 4-of-11 shooting from distance, on top of five rebounds and four assists as the Ilonggo side squandered an early 17-point lead to taste their first loss in 12 games.It was a rather forgettable showing for the HSCI supporting cast in a night where Yap, together with Ken Bono, Leo Canuday, and Rhagnee Sinco all being named in the Mythical First Team. The trio combined for a measly 20 points on a forgettable 8-of-20 shooting while accounting for six of their team&#x27;s 18 errors.Christian Luanzon of St. Stephen&#x27;s High School-SCAG was named as the 40s Division Tournament MVP earlier in the night, while Joseph Chua of AAXS-Acrocity x Zhoosh, Arthur Tiu of SSHS-SCAG, Sean Co and Christian Li of Chiang Kai Shek College-Big Chill, and Tom Cu of Uno High School-CW Home Depot comprised the Mythical Second Team.<div> </div><div>The Scores:</div>AAXS - ACROCITY X ZHOOSH 73 -- Yeo 22, Tiu 20, Liao 18, J.
