Finalists in the A and Flame Tree divisions for the Bud Light Cup of the Saipan Electronic Darts Association were completed with the title match set this week in separate venues.
It was an all-6JMS finals in the A division with the Mafia and Predators contending for the crown after dispatching separate foes in last week’s semifinal round.
The Mafia scored a 9-6 upset over regular season champions Naked Fish Ridin’Darrty and faced sister team Predators for the Bud Light Cup A division title. The finals were being played at press time last night at the 6JMS bar in Garapan.
Udas Cepeda, Alfred Hocog, Freddie Solidum, Ray Taitano, and Jess Villar led the Mafia’s surprising win in their race-to-nine match up against the Darrty’s quintet of James Benavente, Ace Calma, Boom Cruz, Awesome Nunez, and Chico Cruz.
The Predators, on the other hand, completed a 9-4 win over the Franken Gunners to foil the upset bid of the surprise semifinalists. The Gunners finished at the cellar after the regular season where they faced and ousted the lowly Franken Drunken Warriors in the Bud Cup’s elimination round.
Ray Castillo, Edsel Delfin, Gigi Gatmaitan, Joel Gruy, and Andrew Prado teamed up to let the Predators earn the needed nine wins against the Gunners’ quartet of Derek Ayuyu, George Camacho, A.J. Lizama, and Alfred Manglona.
In the Flame Tree division, the Jonny’s Serial Killaz will try to make it two in a row after winning the regular season title. They defeated the Naked Fish Ridin’Darrty, 8-4.
The Naked Fish Na’Gupu, however, stands in their way as they earned the right to face the Killaz following an 8-5 decision against sister team Dartaholiks.
The finals will be played on Thursday, Sept. 28.
