Pulpogan enters SK semis in Consolacion hoop

EBV - The Freeman

CEBU, Philippines - The twice-to-beat Pulpogan booked the first semis ticket after terminating Pulog, 55-42, in the SK division of the 3rd Mayor Teresa "Nene" P. Alegado Fiesta Cup basketball tournament at the Brgy. Jugan open court.

In the other SK quarterfinal matches, Tayud, Cansaga and Danlag stunned their twice-to-beat rivals to live and fight for another day.

Tayud eked out a 70-68 win over the gritty Jugan side, Cansaga subdued Garing, 56-50, while Danlag upended Casili, 62-57.

Jugan led for most of the way but its defense collapsed in the final two minutes, enabling Tayud to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat and force a rubbermatch.

A total of 21 barangays are taking part in the month-long tilt, which is among the highlights of Consolacion's annual fiesta celebration in honor of its beloved patron San Narciso on October 29.

Seeing action under category A are barangays Polog, Panas, Panoypoy, Lanipga, Garing, Sacsac, Tilhaong, and Tolotolo. Comprising category B are barangays Poblacion Oriental, Poblacion Occidental, Cansaga, Pulpugan, Danlag, Casili, Tugbungan, Nangka, Pitogo, Lamac, Tayud, and Jugan.

The annual hardcourt joust is fully supported by Concolacion Mayor Teresa P. Alegado, Vice Mayor Rey Damole, and all members of the Sangguniang Bayan.

The working committee is composed of sports chairman Boy Tibon assisted by Ben Ermac, ABC President Marilou P. Casul and SK Federation President Vito Rolito Villo as co-chairpersons. The games are supervised by league commissioner Paul Alelu Q. Flores, a former star player of the Far Eastern University (FEU) Tamaraws during his UAAP days.

Flores also extended his gratitude to Diosdada Gielcyx, Peter Cabillada, Ronaldo Alimoren and all the barangay council members for their invaluable support to the annual fiesta basketball league. (FREEMAN)
