With an impressive 8-3 record, Converge is firmly in the playoff picture and is pushing to secure a twice-to-beat advantage heading into the quarterfinals.
The FiberXers have displayed consistent form throughout the tournament and will look to maintain their momentum against the Beermen, who are desperate to stay in the hunt for a place in the postseason.
Led by a formidable young local crew featuring Jordan Heading, Alec Stockton, and Schonny Winston, Converge has been relentless in both offense and defense. Import Cheick Diallo continues to anchor the team, delivering inside presence and key contributions on both ends of the floor.
