Sweet Revenge for the NCAA All-Stars
1,887 Views | 29 Comments
The NCAA All Star selection have been known for their winning attitude. And they showed it against college league counterpart UAAP all-star last October 13, 2007
NCAA finalists Rogemar Menor of San Beda and RJ Jazul of Letran teamed up impressively to power the NCAA selection to a come-from-behind 83-78 win over the UAAP selection in the Samsung-Bantay Bata 163 at the Arena in San Juan City.
Down by 16, 23-39, at halftime, the NCAA All-Stars woke up in the third quarter as Menor and Jazul pitched in for 22 points each, including 10 points apiece in the 3rd quarter, to register a 65-60 lead at the start of fourth period.
Samuel Ekwe, racked up 19 points and hauled down 13 rebounds, assured the NCAA All-Stars’ victory after making two free throws to peg the final count with only 4.1 seconds to go.
Edwin Asoro of National University tied the score at 77-all after hitting a trey. But Ekwe’s two straight jumpers had given the NCAA All-Star squad an 81-77 advantage with 42 seconds left
The UAAP-All-Stars narrowed the gap as Mark Borboran of UE scored on split free throw, 78-81, with 32 seconds remaining. But the three-point attempts from Dylan Ababou of UST and La Salle guards JV Casio and TY Tang failed as time expired.
Asoro and Casio had 13 points each for the UAAP selection and failed to repeat against the NCAA All-Star squad.
In the side events, the team of University of the Philippines’s (UP) Martin Reyes and Vic Epres were adjudged champions in the two-ball competition.
Reyes and Epres bagged the title after they scored 45 points in the finals, besting the tandem of University of the East’s Paul Lee and Jorel Canizares, who scored 41 points.The two teams went to the Finals after they were tied for first and second places, respectively during the 16-team elimination round with a score of 61 points.
A trophy, P5,000 cash and MP3 players from Samsung were given out to the winners of the event. The three-point shootout was a La Salle and San Beda finale with King Archer Jayvee Casio winning the competition by scoring 23 points in the Finals. Casio bested San Beda’s JR Tescon who finished with just six points. Fr. Mateo de Jesus of San Beda and Jerry Lacson of Samsung Philippines handed out a trophy, a check of P5,000 and an MP3 player to Casio who was named as co-MVP in last week’s UAAP Finals.
Tecson scored 20 points to enter the shoot-out finals first with Casio and Letran’s RJ Azul being tied for the second spot with 19 points apiece. Tecson and Casio entered the Finals as rules state that only players coming from the UAAP and NCAA can go to the Finals of the three-point shoot-out.
The scores in the first round: James Martinez of University of the East with 8 points, Jayson Nocom of Jose Rizal University (10 ), Khasim Mirza of University of Santo Tomas (5), JR Tecson of San Beda (20), Migs de Asis of University of the Philippines (11), Kelvin de la Peña of Mapua (12), JVee Casio of De La Salle (19), RJ Azul (19).
In the slam-dunk competition, Letran’s Rey Guevarra was named champion after scoring a perfect 50 points in the Finals to beat San Beda’s Sam Ekwe and UE’s Hans Thiele
A trophy, P5,000 cash and MP3 players from Samsung were given out to the winners of the event.
The judges for the event were Jasmine Payo of Philippine Daily Inquirer (PDI), Teodore Jurado of Taliba, Fernando Lozano of Mapua, Mr. Rolando Perez of UE and Peter Musngi of ABS-CBN.
Francis Soriano of UST, Jerome Cruz of JRU, Aaron Galapon of NU, Jason Bellesteros of SSC, Reil Cervantes of FEU and Elmer Espiritu of UE also joined the slam dunk competition.

congratz to ncaa ballers. pero alam naman natin kulang ang uaap all star. wala si mvp jervy, si mythical 5 member chris tiu, at prolific scorer na sina patrick cabahug at jonathan fernandez. pero lam ko malakas din ang ncaa. peace.

i believe NCAA deserved to win because its stars are better than the uaap..nothing more, nothing less…it was not the ncaa’s fault if jervy cruz, chris tiu, patrick cbahug and jonathan fernandez were not able to play..i would have congratulated the uaap team and given them full credit had they won even if pong escobal, yousif aljamal and the others were not around for the ncaa squad..i guess this is the right attitude towards losing..never making excuses for a loss keeps one’s nose to the grind, eventually making him a winner..the loser can’t blame the winner because he is better…doing so is absurd…pax!

Red Pride:
Ang galing mo.
Where we you guys during your school’s dismal performance?
Fair-weathered fans, if you ask me.
And now righteous na rin kayo, very much like the ADMU people.
Magbuo na lang kayo nang sarili niyong liga.. FANTASY LEAGUE niyo… both of you are THE BEST, THE ORIGINAL, and THE PROUD.

animorah, magaling talaga kami…contrary to your baseless statements, bedans have always been loyal to san beda, win or lose…when we lost to san sebastian in the finals for two consecutive seasons during adducul’s time, we were there shouting our lungs out, we got hurt pretty bad of course due to the runner-up finishes, but we never left our school, we never waivered in supporting our team..that’s the truth…yeah we are righteous; you got it right…definitely we are…we have never cheated in any way just to be on top..and you can take that to the bank…check the records…help yourself with the tally, kid..unlike this school in the uaap which even then (during the early days of the ncaa) was already guilty of getting ineligible players…this and many more make us bedans righteous…and yeah, i believe the ateneans are equally righteous..though it is not my business really to defend their lot…i am certain the eagles will try to educate you as well as i have done on account of your rubbish claims…hehehe….

How come now all of a sudden you “bedans” are claiming that ANIMO is yours?
Come to think of it, your lot needs to have a reality check.
You guys are stuck in an inferior league and is trying very hard to hold on to memories of distant past… C’mon, now everyone (but ADMU and yourselves) are copycats of cheers, traditions etc, especially now that you have a “dynasty” that revolves around your import. Do you guys honestly believe that you have a chance if not for Sam Ekwe? Hey red pride, wake up!

Aminorah,
Inferior league? - how come the UAAP all-stars didnt win. Lack of game luster? No excuses. Since you believe the UAAP is superior, you still have to prove it.
Do you guys honestly believe that you have a chance if not for Sam Ekwe? - AGAIN, Why Not, If you have been following the games, you will notice that Sam Ekwe is a role player.
Animo - if you can show me your school Tee from the 70’s that has an Animo in it, I’ll believe you. Because I myself can prove it.

by the way, what is the basis of being a Superior league?
Bigger sponsors? Bigger Crowd? …what else?
If you base your definition of being a superior league only by these means, then that’s stupid.
What about the “competency” of your league’s players? would you consider them superior?
Baka kapag nakipaglaban mga players nyo sa mga taga visayas o mindanao lampasuhin lang kayo. and then you call your league superior?
Oh come on dude. You don’t own UAAP.

For sure kung sa inyo napunta si Sam Ekwe hindi ka magsasalita ng ganyan, for sure…prapraise mo pa siya at pagmamalaki…ganon din sa ibang galit sa kanya…kung sa inyo napunta si Sam eh for sure sobrang saya niyo…SORRY NALANG KAYO!!!
