Fans from all over Panay will troop to the Dinggoy Roxas Civic Center to support their teams who punched their semis tickets, the Rovil Autohub, TJ Cong Tawi, Hercor Jaguars, and the CPU Golden Lions.

Tagged as the biggest inter-commercial basketball league in Roxas, the ODM pre-Sinadya Cup went from almost two months of eliminations down to the best-of-three series semifinals showdown.

The powerhouse team TJ Cong Tawi will try to carry their momentum and dominance against a resilient Rovil squad, who will start the doubleheader at 2:30 in the afternoon.

Finishing the eliminations with an undefeated 3-0 record, TJ Cong will try to maintain their composure and play their consistent brand of basketball against a tough and hardworking Rovil team.

In the other bracket, the Hercor Jaguars will try to get back at the CPU Golden Lions in their semifinals showdown.

In the recently concluded 2019 UNIGAMES, the Golden Lions completed a comeback against the Jaguars after being down by double digits in the first half to fully take control of the game and defeat Hercor.

Expect a slugfest and a tight game between the high-octane paced schools and for sure, a back-and-forth affair from TJ Cong squad and the Rovil team.
