LSM SOL 2002 grabs the Division 1 title; LSQC St. Dominic�90 wins Division 2!
MANDALUYONG City.The quest is over!Only two teams raised the trophy of a winner the chalice of victory the 1st PADRE PIO PERPETUAL CUP last April 1, Saturday here at the LSM Gymnasium.
Let us review first this conference�s format �
SOLGG Basketball Tournament � featuring �PADRE PIO PERPETUAL CUP�
The team�s goal of this tournament is to obtain the �Perpetual Cup� per division. The winning team shall have the said trophy displayed in their alumni association office while the team shall receive a replica of the trophy.The trophy shall reside permanently in the alumni association office once a group has won three years consecutively.
The Most Valuable Player shall be from the champion team per division of the tournament.The MVP�s shall be based upon statistics points of the crossover semi-finals (60%) and sportsmanship (40%).
Well, the first game went through a dozen of lead changes.Both teams were apparently careful in their offensive plays displayed team plays as well as individual basketball skills. Team St. Dominic�90 lost twice to St. Lawrence�92 �the elimination round 78-82 last January 7, 2006 and 83-88 Game 3 of their semifinals encounter last March 25, 2006.
St. Dominic�90 came prepared to play with a basketball-focused payback time against Team St.Lawrence�92.St. Dominic�90 applied 3 to 5 kinds of defense and employed with their �hearts� out a full court press in the final quarter to win 80-72 as Division 2 champions.
Gerald Cabaluna (#8) of St. Dominic�90 won the Division 2 MVP race.He averaged 29 points per game (ppg) in the semifinals and ended the finals with 27 markers contributed to his winning team.He outclassed St. Lawrence�92�s Chestnut Almario (#8) who was averaging 23.3ppg in the semifinals.Almario had a snag in his offensive efforts andmanaged to deliver 7 points for his team.
Awarding the MVP trophy was LSQCAAI Executive Director Mon Cabigao�79 while presenting the championship trophy was incoming
LSQCAAI President George Escarraga�82.
Meanwhile, watching the Division 1 games was reasonably energetic, fast paced and with a never-say-die attitude.SOL 2002 lost to SOL 2000 last January 21, 2006 elimination round meeting, 71-84 and got even with the same team 87-81 in their semifinals game last March 25, 2006.
SOL 2002 was leading up to the third quarter of the game.SOL 2000 tasted the lead at 56-55 at the final quarter, and then had lead changes before a first deadlock at 61-all.There was an exchange of steals by SOL 2002 Egonia #12 and blocks by SOL 2000 Earnshaw #3, 19.3ppg in the final 4 minutes of the game.
After five more
deadlocks at 63-all, 65-all, 68-all, 70-all, 72-all Fargas SOL 2002 #1, 18ppg split his charities to make it 73-72.A foul on R. Egonia sent him to the free throw line afterward he made sure that he converted both charities 75-72.
In the ensuing play, on the dying seconds, M. Martires SOL 2000 #14, 18ppg tried to tie the score with a 3-point shot but muffed it.SOL 2002 replicated a victory over SOL 2000 to become Division 1 champions.
Ralph Lawrence Egonia (#12) of Team SOL 2002 won the Division 1 MVP race.He averaged 22 points per game in the semifinals.
Giving
away the MVP and championship trophies was SOLGG �Basketball Mandaluyong�s Commissioner Henry Subido.
Now there are two teams, one in each division of the SOLGG Basketball that is now in the LourdesSchool alumni sports history!Congratulations Winners!!
Pax et Bonum!

quest of the 1st Padre Pio Perpetual Cup.
After a technical foul for delaying the beginning of their game, SOL 1995 after taking the lead never looked back.Team SOL 1993 had 9/14 conversions at the 3-point arc but SOL 1995 had more than 25 points of fast break plays and gathered 113 points to put away Team SOL 1993 at bay with 94.
Division 1 finals qualifiers SOL2002 and SOL2000 though there was no pressure on both teams they played best showing us a foretaste for their sudden death championships.SOL 2002 wins and scores 87-81.
Team St. Lawrence�92�s win over St. Dominic�90 fashioned a 3-way tie with SOL 1995 in the Division 2�s quest for the finals slot.Both St. Lawrence�92 and St. Dominic�90 have higher quotients, which made them eligible to meet each other for the basketball challenge on
April 1st.Here�s why �

T�was a MANDA Day!
MandaluyongCity.The SOLGG Mandaluyong hosted Game 2 of the crossover semifinals for both SOLGG �Basketball Divisions 1 & 2�s quest of the
1st Padre Pio Perpetual Cup.
Sad to note that three out of fours teams from LSQC came in minutes before game time; unable to make time to adjust to the environment, feel the court, and the basketball here at the Lourdes School Mandaluyong (LSM) Gymnasium.
Team St. Bernard-Primex�02 had a lot of costly passing errors and poor throw shooting throughout the game with excessive 19 turnovers. The depth in bench was absent as Badillo (#10) and Ortiz (#17) almost played without relief. Two
technical fouls were slapped to the team in the fourth quarter was untimely which one-way or another spelled the team�s defeat to Team SOL2000.
Team St. Dominic�90 danced their way to a victory against SOL1993 scoring 102-72. Earlier, there was a quarrel between E. Monsod (#18 SOL1993) and J. Aquino (#4 St. Dominic) and the latter received a technical foul.To pacify this incident in the second quarter, both players were benched for 5-minutes.The game carried on as if nothing happened and later both guys exchanged a handshake after the game.
Meanwhile, Team St. James�89 showed up with six men, most of them playing without relief; dominated both offensive and defensive rebounds and were on top by three points 69-63 at the end of the third quarter still ended up losing as Team SOL 2002 found their 3-point guns firing in the final quarter.
As both teams were exchanging baskets and St. James�89 up by two 82-80, Ralph
Egonia�s (#12) shot from 3-point arc broke the defensive backs of St. James�89 and sparked SOL 2002�s final offensive.
With less than a minute left in the final quarter, Robbie Ang (#12 SOL1995) made sure both of his free throws went in after a foul was made on him score 92-90.In the next play, Chestnut Almario (#8 St. Lawrence�92) scored on a bank shot jumper on the left side of the court to make the count 92-all.
A technical foul was slapped on Ang with 24.4 ticks left in the final quarter.Ian Bravo (#34 St. Lawrence�92) designated shooter converted one of two free throws to take the lead for the first time at 93-92.St. Lawrence put up a good defense but EJ Fuentes (#21) was able to break the said defense for a lone lay-up to take the lead again by one 94-93.
A costly error by J. Cura (#6) at the inbound lane as EJ Fuentes was able to intercept the ball and an immediate foul on Fuentes.St. Lawrence�92 was in penalty situation; Fuentes
made one free throw to score 95-93 with 16.2 seconds left.
In the ensuing play, Joby Lopez (#11 SOL1995) almost intercepted the ball from a pass by R. Bathan (#14) to Bravo to trigger a loose ball as they were hustling the ball went out of bounds the referee called last touch St. Lawrence�92 with 3.5 seconds left.
No time outs for both teams.St. Lawrence�92 set up an immediate defense except for the getaway lay-up by Matley Reyes (#9) to finalize the
score 97-93.

The Quest for the Chalice of Victory
QUEZON CITY.After the unveiling of the Sons of Lourdes Goodwill Games (SOLGG) �Basketball�s new segment of progression � the Crossover Semifinals between Lourdes School of Mandaluyong (LSM) and Lourdes School of Quezon City (LSQC) last March 11 at the LSQC Grade School Gymnasium, the pursuit for the trophy
of a champion continues...
The announcement of Game 1 of the semifinals for that day where as follows �
Game 1 � St. Dominic�90 vs. SOL 1995
Game 2 � SOL 2002 vs. St. Bernard-Primex�02
Game 3 � St. Lawrence�92 vs. SOL 1993
Game 4 � SOL 2000 vs. St. James�89
St. Dominic�90 restrained a 5-man Team SOL 1995, yes undermanned but yet a fighting unit.Team SOL 1995 lead at halftime 36-33, still asserted themselves in the game, doing all that they could other than being substituted for a breather.Ian Cantor (#1) led his teammates with 26 points while St. Dominic�90�s Herrera (#5) and Cabaluna (#8) had 24 and 22 points each.
A dismal 8-point production in the final canto spelled the defeat of Team St. Bernard-Primex�02 to SOL 2002.Maybe another reason was playing injured is T. Ortiz (#17) but he still managed to scatter
30 points along with Badillo (#10) who had 21.Team SOL 2002 bombarded four 3-point markers in the final half to win game one 83-68.Fargas (#1) lead his team with 23 points.
After trailing 16-26 in the first quarter, SOL 1993 played catch up in the next quarters of the game against St. Lawrence�92.Antonio (#12) of SOL 1993 led all scorers this day with 32 points and Estacio (#9) added 18 points.St. Lawrence�92 raised a 20-point bubble ending the third quarter whilst its four men scored more than 15 points each to put SOL 1993 at bay.
Meanwhile in the final game, the timely shots at the 3-point arc by SOL 2000�s Martires (#14) and his team�s effective collective defense to move the big men of St, James�89 out of the shaded area was enough to snatch an 84-73 win.Martires (#14) ended the game with 25 points (five 3-point shots) and Earnshaw (#3) supporting with 23 points.
We will transfer to Lourdes School of Mandaluyong Gymnasium at Shaw Boulevard for the resumption of Game 2 SOLGG

Unfolding Sports History
QUEZON CITY.Last March 11 the Sons of Lourdes Goodwill Games (SOLGG) �Basketball unveiled a new segment in its progression � the crossover semifinals between Lourdes School of Mandaluyong (LSM) and Lourdes School of Quezon City (LSQC).
At around 1:10pm, Joey Abarquez QC�82 steered the team to their formation.Afterwards, the parade of our semifinalists and their introductions began.At the same time Atty. Joseph Literal QC�82 suited up as our photographer.
SOLGG founder and Tournament Director Erwin Paz�82 took control of the sound system to have an ala-NBA music background for the event while due to the absence of a Master of Ceremonies, SOLGG founder and Technical Director Jojo
Angus QC�82 played as host.
As the teams took their places on the hard court, the mini-ceremonial got underway.
Our LSQC Rector Rev. Fr. Cesar Acuin, OFM Cap was introduced and led the alumni players, guest and visitors in a thanksgiving prayer and the SOL Alumni Prayer (at play).
Before Jojo presented the next guest, he read a drawn out introduction and welcomed San Miguel Beerman point guard Olsen Racela.Olsen made a short speech � though he never donned the LSQC uniform he was thankful because it was in the LSQC Basketball Elementary Intramurals as part of team 4-Halcon where he started his basketball career.He led the alumni basketball players reciting the Oath of Sportsmanship.
Erwin Paz QC�82 and SOLGG founder/director Mane Fernandez SOL�80 presented a token of appreciation to Olsen a #17 SOLGG jersey.(Maraming salamat sa
mga kaibigan natin sa LSQC Batch�87!)
Next everybody sang the Lourdes Forever (Jojo led the minus-one singing!Hehehe�)
For the official opening remarks, incoming LSQCAAI President George Escarraga QC�82 has this to say �
�A few months back,
SOLGG is only a vision.
Today, SOLGG is a reality.
Tomorrow, SOLGG will be part of history.
Let us now unfold history.Let the games begin!�
Our guests, Rev. Fr. Cesar Acuin and Olsen Racela completed the event with the Ceremonial Tossing of the basketball before game 1.
