Lamac scores twinkill in Consolacion hoopla
Brgy. Lamac kicked off its championship campaign with twin victories at the start of the 2008 Consolacion Fiesta Cup Basketball Tournament at the Consolacion Sports Complex.
Brgy. Lamac whipped Danlag, 48-28, in the Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) division, while its sister-team had to pass through the wringer before eking out a 54-51 win over Jugan in the Inter-Barangay category.
In the SK battle, Lamac was ahead by only a matchstick, 9-8, but held off Danlag to a paltry two points in the second period while firing in 20 to suddenly blow the game apart with an imposing 19-point advantage, 29-10, at halftime.
Lamac further wobbled the hapless Danlag when it padded its lead to an eye-popping 31 points at the end of the third quarter, 45-14. Danlag outscored Lamac in the final canto, 14-3, but couldn’t prevent the former from coming up with a lopsided triumph.
Organized by Paul Alelu Q. Flores, a former star of FEU Tamaraws in the UAAP, and Aurelio Eslawan, Jr., the two-month cagefest is strongly supported by the municipal government of Consolacion under the leadership of Mayor Avelino Gungob, Sr. and Vice Mayor Ember B. Alinsug.
