LINGAYEN, Pangasinan - Some 6,000 athletes from 11 regions of the country are now in Pangasinan to participate in the 2012 Palarong Pambansa which is set to open May 6 and ends on May 12.

Task Force Palaro head Atty. Verna Nava-Perez said all the other athletes from six more regions are expected to arrive before the start of the games on Sunday.

Overall, some 10,000 athletes in both the elementary and high school divisions are coming for the week-long national games being hosted by the province of Pangasinan, only for the second time since 1995.

Organic Solutions at 2-0 remain the only undefeated team in Class B after Basecom outscored Jast in all quarters to tie their victim at 2-1.

Basecom Edward Uy delivered 24 points, 15 of them in the second quarter, while Dr. Chico Coruña sunk six triples for 22 points, Richard Tan added 17, and Luigi Coo made 14 points.

The victory was the third in five games for B-Meg in the best-of-seven title duel and coach Tim Cone said no less than a reprise of his charges' herculean efforts on Friday is needed for them to close
