MPBL playoffs puntirya ng Quezon Huskers
Tinanggap ni Quezon Province Gov. Helen Tan (gitna) ang token ball mula kay team manager Dan Kapunan sa opisyal na pagpapakilala sa Quezon Hus­kers bilang bagong koponan sa MPBL. Nasa larawan din si Lucena City Mayor Mark Alcala (ikatlo mula sa kaliwa) at mga miyembro ng koponan.

MANILA, Philippines — Handa ang Quezon Huskers na gawin ang lahat upang makapasok sa playoffs ng Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League fifth season na magsisimula sa Sabado sa Quezon Convention Center sa Lucena City.

Ito ang unang pagkaka­taon na sasalang ang tropa sa MPBL.

Kaya naman desidido si Huskers coach Eric Gonzales na maihanda ang kanyang tropa para maisakatuparan ang plano nito.

Maiksi lamang ang preparasyon ng Huskers dahil bagong team lamang ito.

Binuo ang Huskers noong nakaraang buwan sa pangunguna nina team manager Atty. Donn Rico Kapunan, assistant team manager Magnum Membrere at consultant Patrick Gregorio.

Bumabandera sa listahan si reigning National Collegiate Athletic Association Most Valuable Player Will Gozum na binigyan ng Special Guest License ng Games and Amusement Board.

Kasama rin sina AJ Madrigal, Brix Ramos at CJ Catapusan na bahagi ng University Athletic Association of the Philippines champion team University of the Philippines noong 2021.

Kinuha rin ng Hus­kers sina dating University of Santo Tomas star Jeric Teng at MPBL veteran Mark Pangilinan habang si dating UP standout Jaggie Gregorio ang playing assistant manager.

“My concern is that the time we spent in forming a solid team was so short. But I’m hoping and praying to make it to the playoffs,” ani Gonzales sa press launch na dinaluhan din nina team owners Quezon Rep. Keith Micah Tan at San Andres, Quezon Mayor Ralph Edward Lim kasama si Quezon Governor Helen Tan.

Umaasa si Gov. Tan na makakatulong ang partisi­pasyon ng Huskers sa MPBL hindi lamang sa sports kundi ang makilala ang Quezon Province sa tourism, commerce at infrastructure.

“This is the first time for us to participate in a national league like the MPBL. We’re very thankful to be given the opportunity and we hope that we will make the Quezonians proud,” ani Gov. Tan.
