EBV - The Freeman

CEBU, Philippines - Team Olkas, manned by Calambua's homegrown talents, banked on a furious third-quarter explosion to repulse Bagtik, 90-82, and clinch the championship of the 1st Lou Ornopia basketball tournament last Sunday at the Calambua open court in San Remigio north of Cebu.

Olkas trailed by seven points halftime, 37-44, but Jei Dabloand Yuson conspired in a blistering 27-14 rally that put them ahead by six points 64-58, for good.

Ursal then took matters into his own hands in the final period where he pumped in 11 of his game-tying high 26 points as Olkas strolled to a resounding eight-point triumph.

Earlier, San Miguel demolished Ilihan, 90-66, to lift the third place trophy. San Miguel was in full command from the onset, posting a 44-32 advantage at the break, which they parlayed into a 24-point blowout at the final buzzer.

Team Olkas took home P10,000, while Bagtik and San Miguel pocketed P7,000 and P5,000, respectively. Ilihan got a consolation prize of P3,000.

The awarding ceremony is scheduled this Saturday night in time for the annual fiesta of Calambua in honor of its beloved patron San Vicente Ferrer. Aside from the top performing teams, the outstanding individual achievers such as the MVP and Mythical Five will also be honored.

Presented by the barangay council of Calambua in partnership with MS Motosuit, the month-long tilt was made possible through the support of Bradder Moto Access, F&FO Motor Parts, Sanitec General Services, Speed-up Motor Parts, RMO Motor Parts, Prospeed, Motomaze, JCO Motor Parts, Keiz BJ Motors, Andy Uy, Leizel Navarez, Diosdado Navarez, Anong Lumapas, Jerry Samarita, Vincent Golbe, and the families of Saludar, Ycot, Ornopia, Montealto, Armenion, Jubay, and De la Peña.
