Remogat ended the day with 18 points, including seven against Mongolia, six against China, and five against Japan.

Gilas first defeated China, 20-17, with Patrick Sleat leading the way with six points.

With the victory, the Philippines now holds third place with 340 points, trailing Japan by 20 points and Mongolia by 120 points in the conference standings.
