Strong Group Athletics tainted the fourth quarter run of Chinese Taipei A as they managed to pull a 83-79 OT win securing the championship in the 2024 William Jones Cup, July 21.
SGA bounced back after the devastating loss from last January as they failed to complete a late comeback against Al Riyadi in the 33rd Dubai International Championship, 77-74.
Despite being down 71-64 in the fourth quarter with only 1:08 remaining time on the clock, SGA did the unthinkable and did a 9-2 run, forcing a much-needed overtime for the Filos.
Tajuan Agee’s 21 points, nine rebounds, and three assists topped with the facility of Kiefer Ravena as he listed nine points, four boards, and four dimes, serving as the key element for SGA’s championship run.
Strong Group Athletics became the seventh Filipino team to bring home the chip in the annual William Jones Cup.
