The Converge FiberXers are on the brink of making history as they prepare to battle the San Miguel Beermen in a decisive Game 5 of the PBA Season 49 Governors' Cup quarterfinals on October 6 at the Ynares Center in Antipolo.

With the series tied 2-2, Converge is just one win away from securing its first-ever appearance in the PBA semifinals.

After a hard-fought win in Game 3, Converge carried that momentum into Game 4, claiming a 114-100 victory.

Schonny Winston was the spark for the FiberXers, leading the team with 26 points, six rebounds, and five assists. His standout performance was key in keeping Converge ahead of the Beermen.

Justin Arana remained a strong presence for Converge, contributing 25 points, while import Jalen Jones added 22 points of his own.

Game 3 hero Alec Stockton also continued his impressive run, scoring 16 points as Converge's balanced offensive attack overwhelmed San Miguel.


Now, Converge faces a golden opportunity to make history in Game 5. If the FiberXers can replicate their strong team performance, they will punch their ticket to the semifinals for the first time since joining the PBA.

The trio of Winston, Arana, and Jones will be crucial once again as they look to overpower a star-studded San Miguel squad and advance to face Barangay Ginebra in the semis.

Tip off for the final game of the quarterfinals will be at 7:30 p.m. from Antipolo.
