Galeries Tower showed no signs of rust, cruising past PSP, 74-39, to stay unbeaten in the 2025 Women’s Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (WMPBL) Invitational Tournament last Sunday at the Enderun College Gym.

The Skyrisers, who last played on 29 January in a win over Solar Home, made the most of a two-week break, returning to dominate a struggling Lady Gymers squad for their third straight victory.

“It’s like a rollercoaster. We’ll have good offense but bad defense. On the other hand, if we have good defense, we find it hard to convert. That’s something we have to work for,” Galeries head coach Ai Lebornio said.

“Of course, our opponents are also preparing. They are also getting better. So, we have to be ready and be consistent on both ends.”

Former two-time University Athletic Association of the Philippines Most Valuable Player Ambie Almazan powered the Skyrisers with a double-double of 11 points and 13 rebounds, along with two assists and three steals, as they handed PSP a 35-point drubbing.

Anna Buendia led Galeries in scoring with 13 points on an impressive 71 percent shooting from the field, while Princess Fabruada also contributed 11 points.

The Skyrisers’ suffocating defense limited the Lady Gymers to just 14 points in the first half, setting the tone for a lopsided affair. They then intensified their attack after the break, pulling away for a dominant victory and extending their unbeaten run.
