Jason Castro, who failed to give Hapee Toothpaste the PBL title, will have to console himself by winning the MVP award.

Castro piled up the statistical points throughout the tournament and clinched the award by getting the crucial votes from his fellow players and the media.

Lacing their dreaded motion offense with a solid defensive game, the Red Lions routed the Jose Rizal Heavy Bombers, 69-51, yesterday to seize the solo lead in Season 80 of the NCAA basketball tournament at the Rizal Memorial Coliseum.
