00:00As words that he told us,
00:02this is a buffet, coach.
00:04That's why I asked him earlier,
00:06he said it's not a buffet.
00:08If it's another good game,
00:10it's up to you, Niko.
00:12Watch the replay, okay?
00:14Stop beating Alex.
00:18So,
00:20we're on top of the bench.
00:22Jumpol called Paul,
00:24Genesis Aviles, who had
00:26a good game last game.
00:28Let's watch that.
00:30One-legged fader for Escobedo.
00:32No goal.
00:34And LPU will have their first
00:36offensive possession.
00:38Montano, handoff
00:40to Conana.
00:42Villegas.
00:44The ball was returned to
00:46his teammate, Greg.
00:48Team captain.
00:50Benafiel.
00:52Villegas from the field.
00:54Too strong.
00:56Good looking shot there.
00:58Open shot for LPU.
01:00But I like this roster.
01:02I like this starting five for LPU.
01:04It's a good combination.
01:06Benafiel and Villegas
01:08as your wing guys.
01:10And Gael Montano can shoot
01:12from the outside.
01:14The attackers are with him.
01:16Fedebrico with the interception.
01:18Escobedo.
01:20Raymart Escobedo will finish
01:22on the break.
01:24Raymart Escobedo has been one of the
01:26best open court players
01:28in season 100.
01:30He gets the first basket here in transition.
01:36Benafiel.
01:38Dangerous pass. Aviles.
01:40Too strong on the reverse.
01:42And now,
01:44we'll go to Bianca Alejandre
01:46for her first report.
01:48Determination or desire,
01:50which team's persona will dominate the stage
01:52For today's matchup, according to LPU
01:54head coach, Gilbert Malabanan,
01:56their team's persona is their intensity.
01:58Relaying how they're always able to
02:00catch up despite a trailing score.
02:02Proving over to the Stags,
02:04Arvin Bonleon. Their team's
02:06persona is known as a fourth quarter
02:08team, but now his instruction
02:10is to make their fourth quarter play
02:12their first quarter playing style by showing
02:14hustle early on in the game.
02:16With two different motives, two walls set
02:18in motion, let's see which team's character
02:20speaks volumes on the court. That's all
02:22from courtside, Anton and Coach Cameron.
02:24Is what I heard right?
02:26Heartwarming is the
02:28persona of San Sebastian.
02:30That's right.
02:34But nothing warm
02:36about that shot.
02:38That's hot.
02:40Nico Aguilar, right out the gate.
02:44I've been expecting Nico to really play
02:46guns out
02:48here in
02:50our remaining games. Because throughout the season,
02:52he has been one of the guys,
02:54the way that he processes things,
02:56because that's his
02:58habits. The big man jogs.
03:00Forward pass could have been an easy
03:02basket. But right here, this is the first
03:04five points of their squad
03:06coming off the hands of Raymard Escobedo.
03:14He's going to attack.
03:16Had to travel.
03:22Looking for a pass back here.
03:34He gets
03:36control on the way that he attacks.
03:42Off the glass and in.
03:44And Sebastian is off
03:46to a great start.
03:50No rust
03:52at all for this team.
03:58Villegas.
04:00MontaƱo.
04:02MontaƱo
04:04dreams to be range J.
04:06All four points of LPU
04:08coming off the hands of Miguel MontaƱo.
04:10I told you Anton, when there are
04:12attackers around
04:14Gael MontaƱo, he maximizes
04:16his jump shooting.
04:18He's a good three-point shooter. Good
04:20elbow scorer and attacker.
04:24Fade away.
04:26And Aviles comes up with a board.
04:28Cunanan.
04:32Almost a touchdown for
04:34PeƱa Fiel. Just could not convert
04:36but he was able to draw a foul.
04:38LPU has a lot of confidence to get boards
04:40because the ball will be
04:42haggis first.
04:46Usually coaches wouldn't want to see that.
04:48The outlets of Palobo.
04:50But they're confident that PeƱa Fiel
04:52will be running his lane.
04:56LPU on a three-game
04:58losing skid. They last
05:00tasted victory October 15th
05:06against San Pedro. Yeah, that Greg Cunanan
05:08seems like
05:10a lifetime ago.
05:12Yeah, but again
05:14that's how it is.
05:16You have to stay consistent with the way
05:18that you're executing things.
05:20San Sebastian has an early
05:2210th to 6th advantage as we
05:24head to this timeout.
05:32Carlos Yulo is well-known
05:34for his double gold in
05:36Paris. But did you know that
05:38there was a former Carlos who played
05:40in the Olympics that became NCAA?
05:42He is none other than
05:44Carlos Caloy Loizaga
05:46who won the San Pedro Red Lions
05:48three times in the 1950s.
05:50Loizaga played twice
05:52in the Olympics, as well as
05:54in the Asian Games, FIBA Asia, and
05:56FIBA World Championships where he
05:58won a lot of medals.
06:00Alright, let's check in
06:02with the members of the management
06:04committee of the NCAA.
06:06He is the chairman
06:08for Season 100,
06:10Hercules Callata of LPU.
06:12Sir Herc.
06:14Veteran.
06:16And monumental
06:18for the youngest member
06:20of the NCAA
06:22to be the host in Season
06:24100
06:26in the basketball tournament.
06:28For sure.
06:30Monumental.
06:34Aguilar.
06:40Aguilar.
06:44Escobedo pops out
06:46but he was denied. Aguilar will
06:48pull up.
06:50Aguilar is on point.
06:52Smooth jumper for
06:54Nico. Enough space to execute
06:56that dribble.
06:58Pull up, elbows, money shot.
07:04PeƱa Pia.
07:08Montanjo baseline.
07:10Jay in and out.
07:12It ends up
07:14in the hands of Mr. Aguilar.
07:18Aguilar.
07:20Gabat.
07:22Filibrico wants it in the post.
07:24Does not get it.
07:26Filibrico.
07:30Good rebound touch by Rex Gabat.
07:32Tapik-tapik.
07:34For extra possession.
07:36That's why he called
07:38Leo Velasco.
07:44This Leo Velasco
07:48is also okay.
07:50They will develop him.
07:52Like
07:54JM Calma.
07:56He also started like that.
07:58But this one is bigger.
08:00He will have the start of his career.
08:0219 only.
08:06Villegas.
08:089 on the shot clock.
08:10Villegas killer crossover.
08:14Just too strong off the glass.
08:18But too quick foul.
08:20We just mentioned to Velasco.
08:26Challenges like that.
08:28Challenge the shot not to block.
08:30But to interfere.
08:32With the shot.
08:34The rotation here is a bit low.
08:36Coach Arvin.
08:38He told us.
08:40His players are not improving.
08:42That's why you need to play
08:44a percentage when it comes to defense.
08:46Coach got jokes.
08:48He's just honest.
08:524 minutes and 44 seconds
08:54remaining in the first period.
08:56Villegas.
08:58Unable to convert on the first.
09:00Barba
09:02still on the bench.
09:10I'm looking at him.
09:12He finally gets called off of his seat.
09:14By Coach Gilbert Malabana.
09:22Gabat pulls up for 3.
09:24And a rebound.
09:28By Montano.
09:30Guadagna is on the floor.
09:36Aviles.
09:38Aviles muscles his way
09:40in between the two defenders.
09:44Montano changed his mind.
09:46Montano.
09:48Guadagna on the putback.
09:50Just misfired.
09:52Escobedo.
09:54Zigzagging his way to the basket.
09:56And Suico gets fouled.
09:58Good ball control.
10:02Raymart Escobedo.
10:04The defenders created a traffic cone.
10:08Going cross.
10:10And Suico.
10:12At the right spot.
10:14On the most perfect time.
10:16Get that end one.
10:22A 7 point lead for
10:24San Sebastian.
10:28Atobarba now
10:30on the floor.
10:32For his opponent.
10:46Barba averaging 17.2.
10:48He's getting shorter.
10:50He's stretching like 25.
10:52His opponent.
10:54And Paengare also.
10:56In the game.
11:06Which is one of the things that he does really well.
11:08Crashing boards.
11:10These are the LPU guards.
11:12Bread and butter.
11:14Because if you can't get a basket from the outside, you have to crash boards.
11:20Gabat.
11:22Short.
11:26Paz was way ahead.
11:28And Montano
11:30unable to handle it.
11:34And from out of nowhere,
11:36Greg Gunanan scores on the putback.
11:38More effort play for Greg.
11:50Suico.
11:52Suico.
11:54Ready to play.
11:56Now for the end one.
12:12And when we come back,
12:14Atobarba will shoot those
12:16two free throws.
12:20The first thing that comes to mind
12:22when we talk about NCAA
12:24is basketball.
12:26But even in other fields of
12:28strength, NCAA will still fight.
12:30Look at the
12:32outstanding player,
12:34Chess Grandmaster Eugene Torre,
12:36who is now a Hall of Famer.
12:38The College of St. Benilde,
12:40Season 92 Men's Volleyball Champion
12:42and MVP, John Vic de Guzman,
12:44who won a silver medal
12:46in the SEA Games.
12:48Agatha Wong,
12:50who also won five gold medals
12:52in the SEA Games in Wushu.
12:54And of course,
12:56Benilde, who won the
12:58first Olympic gold medal
13:00in the Philippines.
13:06Alright, alright, alright.
13:08Let's check in with the ladies
13:10on this morning.
13:12Alright.
13:14Can you imagine?
13:16Alright.
13:18I like the fit, I like the look,
13:20I like the hair.
13:22Branding on point.
13:24And they still
13:26look good even though they got the
13:28student vibe going on with those
13:30LPU lanyards.
13:32As they should, additional credit.
13:34I feel like you're the type of student
13:36who will not wear a lanyard.
13:38No, I wear my school ID.
13:40When I was still studying,
13:42our school ID was a group photo.
13:44Me, Key, you, Alex Angelez,
13:46Marco Arboles,
13:48and Marvin Valdivia.
13:50How do you read that in one ID?
13:52ID pictures in San Bernardino.
13:54So when we go to the Multimedia,
13:56they'll take a picture of us.
13:58So when you swipe your ID,
14:00they'll take a picture of the four of us.
14:02Oh my God.
14:04So if one of you forgets your ID...
14:06All of us are present.
14:08But the student number is different.
14:10Shoutout to Kenneth Pilapil.
14:12He's our long-time
14:14IT guy in San Bernardino.
14:18That's a group shot in the ID photo.
14:22That's the first time I heard about that.
14:24Four dudes in one ID picture.
14:26That's a team shot.
14:30Jonathan Dailek in the game.
14:32The almost hero
14:34of LPU.
14:36I like this guy.
14:38He's a type of player
14:40that can move
14:42through positions.
14:44He can shoot from the outside.
14:46He can rebound.
14:48Talking about offensive rebounding,
14:50he can crash boards right away.
14:54And if you look at him,
14:56he's a pro-body,
14:58a pro-skillset.
15:00Calvin Ocana was like that
15:02when he started.
15:04He's an extra-position guy, a hustle guy.
15:06Those are his habits.
15:14We have a lot of guys like that
15:16in the NC
15:18who started as an extra-position guy.
15:22Romel Calajan, for Basne.
15:24That's how he used to start off.
15:26But Dailek is taller.
15:30John Michael Versosa started the season
15:32as a reserve.
15:34He was eliminated after the
15:36JM Bravo injury.
15:40You can shuffle your lineup anytime.
15:42When you have injuries,
15:44you can maximize the 18 guys.
15:46It's just waiting for your turn.
15:48Unlike before, 15-man roster.
15:50The player needs to be injured.
15:52Now, you can shuffle.
15:54Look at Versosa.
15:56He's playing like he wants a 10-day contract
15:58with the NBA.
16:00Remember, he had a crucial
16:02basket against San Beda.
16:04In transition.
16:08He's attached to play.
16:10This is only his 6th appearance
16:12in Season 100.
16:14Players like him want to play
16:16more than the ones you force them to play.
16:18He has a different energy.
16:20Where's the ball?
16:22It's there.
16:24He's not that talented
16:26skill-wise,
16:28but he will always find a spot
16:30in any team that a coach needs.
16:32Sacrifices numbers
16:34for the
16:36ecosystem of their team.
16:38Dead ball.
16:40He's getting the ball.
16:42I'm sure ball.
16:44When you ask Coach Gilbert,
16:46he has raving remarks
16:48when it comes to Versosa.
16:50When it comes to the ensayo, you can expect it.
16:52Sure ball.
16:54You don't see the numbers in the game,
16:56but it's always there.
16:58There's energy, guys.
17:00You always have a spot in any team.
17:08This is one of the things
17:10that Mclod Godana gives.
17:12He can have bad shooting games.
17:14He can not be scoring
17:16at a high efficiency,
17:18but he is always ready to work.
17:20That's one thing that
17:22Mclod Godana, that I appreciated
17:24more this season.
17:26Good shooting and injuries.
17:34Boranejo turning the ball over.
17:36Back to San Sebastian.
17:42The hard play for San Sebastian.
17:44Roller popper action.
17:48No defense.
17:50The LPU.
17:52Let's see if Are will
17:54start to get going here.
17:56Are, step through.
17:58Foot back. Another one.
18:00Wala pa rin. And the elec
18:02comes up with the rebound.
18:06But he's there. You gotta give credit
18:08to them for it.
18:10Barba half spin.
18:16Medyo nacheck na yung strong right ni Barba.
18:18Pipihit sa kaliwa.
18:20Past two games.
18:22Mablangkat talaga yung shoulder niya.
18:24He would attack really strong
18:26going to the right.
18:28LPU has not led in this game.
18:3853.7. That is the
18:40time remaining here
18:42in the first.
18:44San Sebastian's lead was as high as 8.
18:48Panibakot pangkakataon.
18:50Guadagna
18:52for the lead.
18:56Ito na si Paek.
18:58Pareng Are nakita si Litor.
19:00Puntos para sa Bastet.
19:02And that's what you want to see.
19:04When your big guy is running, he gets rewarded.
19:06Pero sa kabila, yung
19:08quick transition basket para kay Atom
19:10Barba.
19:12And the steal here.
19:14Wow, he is a
19:16bottle of energy.
19:18And the dosa is
19:20stopped by
19:22I think that was Risho.
19:26Look at this find by Are.
19:30Natulog sa pansita
19:32Itong depensa ng San Sebastian.
19:34Umi-sprint back ng high.
19:36Ang bilisang talaga yung inbound.
19:38Hinahanap kasi ng LPU.
19:40Yung mga quick outlet.
19:44Are with the board.
19:46At the clock, may oras pa.
19:48Gabat.
19:52Gets the ball back. Risho
19:54has to shoot.
19:56And that will do it
19:58for the first quarter.
20:00Oh my.
20:04We are back in business.
20:08San Sebastian leads
20:10LPU 17 to 16
20:12at the end of one.
