Converge secured a significant 100-97 upset victory over San Miguel Beer in the PBA Philippine Cup at the Ninoy Aquino Stadium.

This win, which snapped San Miguel's streak, boosted Converge's morale and secured them a quarterfinal appearance with a 7-4 record.

Schonny Winston, with 25 points, emphasized that beating the Beermen proves Converge can compete with top teams and motivates them for the playoffs.

Despite a first-half lead, Converge had to fend off a San Miguel comeback, with Justin Arana also contributing significantly with 21 points.

Coach Franco Atienza stressed that the victory's significance hinges on Converge's ability to leverage this momentum for a deep playoff run.

The FiberXers aim to overcome past postseason struggles and reach the semifinals for the first time in franchise history.

Converge's win has complicated the standings, potentially leading to a six-way tie at 7-4 if TNT and other teams secure victories, making their performance in the upcoming playoffs even more critical.
