PESEB, Tuesday, July 3, 2012 – Pei Cai Secondary made it to the next round of the South Zone C Division Boys’ Basketball Championship, after beating Outram Secondary 80-23.

The win gave Pei Cai a 2-1 win-loss record and second place in Group A behind leaders Catholic High. Peicai lost 44-75 to Catholic High.

Outram’s defeat means that they are out of the competition, after two losses.
