Green overshadows White at start of Sunday Club cagefest

-

Team Green kicked off its title campaign on a bright note, but had to pass through the wringer before getting past the gritty White squad, 87-85, at the start of the Sunday Club Rollway & Ryle Trucking 1st Season Basketball Tournament 2008 at the Villa Magallanes Gym in Brgy. Basak, Lapu-Lapu City.

Ian Sanchez sparkled with 26 points, half of which he made in a sizzling 31-19 rally in the third quarter that buffered the Rollway Freight and Shipping Agencies Corporation-sponsored Green to triumph.

The Cebu Ryle Trucking and Logistics Corporation-backed White reversed the scenario in the final period where it staged a similar 31-19 run, but Green proved to be a tough nut to crack at crunchtime and held on a two-point victory.

Sanchez was heavily backed up playing coach Cliford Ponce with 22 points followed by Joebert Rosatase with 14 markers.Team manager Rolly de la Pieza chipped in four points.

Team captain Arvin Genogin and Tete Gullem each scored 20 for Team White, while Centes Brananola and Benjie Delgado contributed 15 and 12 markers, respectively, in a losing cause.
