NASHSPINNER scored a 3-0 victory against the surprisingly agile Tolopia of Perpetual College, 3-0 respectively versus Letran's Pansacula & Gapas and won by a hair, 3-2, against Manlapaz of San Beda. A perfect 2nd round performance worthy of a second consecutive MVP award.

It was always a pleasure watching Nashspinner play against Monmon Manlapaz. Both are natural loopers and very good at ball control. They can easily engage in good mid-distance rallies trading FH fullswings to the delight of the audience. It was only a matter of who gets the better rhythm and make the point. These two aces make table tennis look so easy and fun to play.
