Binan-Tatak Gel stays unbeaten in WMPBL, blasts Caloocan
Biñan-Tatak Gel steamrolled Caloocan, 102-67, to extend its winning streak in the 2026 Women’s Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League regular season on Wednesday at the Filoil EcoOil Centre.
The Angels broke away in the second half after only holding a slim 35-32 lead at the break, tightening their defense and pulling away decisively to complete a 35-point rout that kept them unbeaten at 4-0 atop the standings.
“Slow start, pero at least nakarecover kami nung second half. Most ng games namin parang ganun, parang isang game lang ‘yung maganda ‘yung start namin or two games, pero the rest ganiyan talaga. Pero syempre good thing nakaka-recover kami,” said Biñan-Tatak Gel head coach Jack Azcueta.

The Angels further widened the gap in the fourth quarter, erupting for 41 points to fully seize control and finish strong.
