It appears there’s no stopping the well-oiled Strong Group-Pilipinas on their tracks in the 43rd William Jones Cup.

This as the Philippine squad continued its red-hot campaign with a 112-90 drubbing of Future Sports-USA at the Xhizhuang Gymnasium in Taiwan on Thursday, July 18.

And at the center of Strong Group’s assault was Chris McCullough, who battered the USA club with 24 points, 18 rebounds, seven assists, two steals, and three blocks.

McCullough also got plenty of help from Tajuan Agee and RJ Abarrientos, who added 19 and 17 points, respectively, for the unscathed SGA.

Jordan Heading sank three triples on the way to 11 points as SGA rolled to a rousing fifth straight win.

Meanwhile, Bowen Hammer paced Future Sports with 18 points.

Strong Group hopes to preserve its immaculate record when taking on Japan’s U22 squad on Friday at 1pm.
