WMPBL: Tantoy Ferrer flirts with triple-double as QC-10ACT dominates Caloocan, boosts twice-to-beat bid


RK Hoops-Quezon City 10ACT clobbered skidding Caloocan behind an all-around outing from Tantoy Ferrer, 86–66, to strengthen its bid for a twice-to-beat quarterfinal bonus in the 2026 Women’s Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League on Wednesday at Hoops Haven in Pasay.

Ferrer barely missed a triple-double, finishing with a well-rounded line of 24 points, 15 rebounds, and nine assists, alongside six steals in the blowout win.

The Quezon City-based squad snapped its two-game skid to improve to 3–6 and climb to solo fourth place. The team remains just half a game ahead of Pasig (2–6), which was playing Batangas-New Zealand as of publishing time.

“Kailangan pa namin i-improve ‘yung defense namin kasi this game, yes, we won. But need pa yan i-improve para makaabot kami sa final four,” said RK Hoops-QC 10ACT head coach Jon Cobarrubias, who is still seeking more from his team, especially ahead of their next game against Biñan-Tatak Gel on Sunday.

Ferrer, Caryl Molina, and Natasha Alcantara set the tone early, powering Quezon City to a 20-point halftime cushion, 49–29.

The squad then made sure not to allow the Lady Kankaloo any sustained run in the second half, completing an elimination-round, head-to-head sweep after also winning their first meeting, 68–60.

Molina added 19 points on an efficient 9-of-13 shooting. She also had nine rebounds, four assists, two blocks, and a steal, finishing as a game-best +36 in 24 minutes and 27 seconds of action.

Hazel Panti contributed 12 points, six rebounds, and six steals, while Alcantara chipped in 10 points.
