THE M. LHUILLIER Kwarta Padala-Cebu Niños kept their undefeated streak intact after they routed the hosts Zamboanga Uno Latinos, 123-97, in the Zamboanga leg of the 2009 Smart Liga Pilipinas late Wednesday at the Summit Centre inside the Universidad de Zamboanga.

Jayson Rebollos paced the Latinos with 21 points and six rebounds while Christopher Concepcion added 20 points and six assists.

The Latinos need to finish at least in Third Place in this their final leg assignment in order to make the playoffs in next month?s Super Leg that will determine the next National Champion of the conference.

Reigning champions Misamis Oriental Meteors of Gov. Oscar S. Moreno fueled their hopes of gaining an outright Super Leg seat with a 95-64 dumping of the EKB-Apayao Rapids of Gov. Elias K. Bulut.

Cebuano hotshot Patrick Cabahug continued from his hot showing in China by scattering six triples for 28 markers in only 27 minutes of play.
