LESSONS were learned well this past season.

The University of the East Red Warriors used their superior experience to defeat the University of Cebu Webmasters, 105-86 in Philippine Collegiate Champions League Sweet 16 action last November 28, 2009 at The Arena in San Juan City.

An automatic qualifier to the 2009 Philippine Collegiate Champions League, the Red Warriors made their presence felt by being the first team so far to score over 100 points in the Sweet 16 this year.

“Siguro mas lamang kami dahil galing kami sa UAAP at maganda and mga naging laban namin doon. Yung mga tinalo namin sa UAAP hindi biro. 10-4 kami sa Eliminations, twice-to-beat yung FEU, best-of-three kami sa Finals versus Ateneo,” revealed UE assistant coach Rene Baena, who filled in for head coach Lawrence Chongson as UE’s inspirational first year head coach was in Malaysia. The Red Warriors were also without Rudy Lingganay and Toto Bandaying, who are playing for the Kuala Lumpur Dragons in the ongoing ASEAN Basketball League, as well as Lucas Tagarda, who suffered an accidental knee injury while warming up in Game 3 of the UAAP Finals.

“Sabi ni coach Lawrence, we need to win this game so that we will be able to play FEU again. Pero alam din ng FEU yan. They are probably aching to get back at us. It will be a good matchup,” added Baena.

FEU already advanced to the Elite Eight of the tournament by defeating Arellano University 69-59 last Monday. This victory by UE sets them up against the team that they beat in the Final Four two games in a row to advance to the UAAP Season 72 Finals.

UAAP Mythical Five member Paul Lee turned The Arena into his own personal playground with an amazing triple-double performance, garnering 31 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists. He was perfect from the line knocking down 10 free-throws, had three steals and zero minutes of rest.

CESAFI Mythical Five members, Moncrief “Barnett” Rogado and 6’9 giant, June Mar Fajardo, scored 25 and 24 points respectively for the Rhoel Gomez-mentored Webmasters.

The scores:

UE 105 – Lee 31, Llagas 17, Espiritu 14, Zamar 10, Acuña 9, Reyes 6, Flores 5, Acibar 4, Ayala 3, Sumido 2, Noble 2, Duran 2.

UC 86 – Rogado 25, Fajardo 24, Juliane 13, Quilantang 6, Tano 5, Luceño 4, Abella 4, Gomez 3, Cayanong 2, Mohammad 0, Bernil 0.

Quarter scores: 28-23, 53-43, 83-61, 105-86.

Anton fell in love with the game of Basketball at the exact same moment he knew Michael Jordan. After playing high school ball for two UAAP seasons with the De La Salle-Zobel Junior Archers, he moved on to De La Salle University-Manila for college where he completed a degree in Applied Corporate Management. He almost ventured into a career in the corporate world but his love for the game prevailed. Anton somehow always knew, that if he didn't become "Like Mike," he would become what he is today - A Sportscaster. Covering Basketball, Volleyball and Boxing for ABS-CBN Sports is a dream come true for him. So is writing for this website.

    Sayang naman si Junmar Fajardo. Dami kung inexpect dun. I really want to see match up against someone like Sudan Daniel, or Nonoy Baclao.

  • Galactic Alignment says:

    @ Res Ipsa,
    Well, just wait and see. I personally think that the Red Warriors just let their frustrations out, especially the stars, losing to the Blue Eagles in last season’s finals.
    Malas ng Webmasters, sila natapat.

  • taeng res ipsa says:

    Kick your damn ass men… You’re such a BIG looser…
    Paul Lee will not be included in the most recent UAAP season’s mythical five and contender in the MVP race as well kung tama ung sinasabi na tutungaga lang sya sa kahit ano man sabihin mong teams na nakalaban or makakalaban nila…

  • @pentium says:

  • watcher... says:

    kala ko poh ba covered ng Studio23 lahat ng PCCL games?? bakit ung World 10-ball Championship yung telecast nila yesterday.. hmmn, mukhang there’s something fishy na sa contract…

  • HARDBALL says:

    @ rep ipsa and other silly commentators like him i hope mas mbuksan ang mga isip ntn into reality ndi puro insecure guys ok.
    a team like UE is a great team. just it.
    we all know that ok.
    so UE fans is not affected on every single silly detal you put in our article.
    well san beda is good pero actually wala pa tlga cla sa lkas nitong red warriors. ateneo, ue, lasalle, feu and ust is the top and elite teams in collegueate league.

  • HARDBALL says:

    well anu nman kung ue at ateneo din ang magharap? anu nman kung mtalo na cla sa feu? o magchoke ulit sa finals? o matalo ulit cla ng ateneo? its not the real case. cguro atleast we debate it in a right manner at 40 percent lng un. cguro sa mga ndi nakakaintindi may kulang na sa pagiisip. ayoko ng isa isahin mga nagawa ng ue sa larangang ito bka mgulat lng ung hindi pa nkakaalam. better hav research para ndi husga ng husga. matanong ko san ba kaung institution? look at urself before others. humuhusga pa kau sa hndi nio kaya.

  • HARDBALL says:

    comment ko lng sa studio 23.

    sana kung malabo na ung contract nio between pccl eh sana hindi nio na inaadvertise ung pccl sa channel nio kc umaasa lng ibang televiewers. sabi dun sa patalastas na ganitong day and time pero iba nman. may pa get it here get it here pa kaung nalalaman. eh dba kcraan un sa image nio. so please be real.

  • softball says:

    @hardball, baka binabase mo ang mga sinasabi mong lakas ng teams na yan dahil mas kilala mo ang mga players nila. dlsu nga eh, talo lang sa letran. pano pa kaya yung mas magagaling pa sa letran. nitong mga tatlo o apat na taon, match na match na ang mga teams ng ncaa at uaap. kahit ue pa yan o ateneo, kayang kayang tapatan ng SSC o SBC yan.

  • HARDBALL says:

    silly and cheap commentators dun kau sa cheap na articles nio. peace?!! eh totoo nman kc..

  • jen says:

    talagang magaling si PAUL LEE di chamba un..kala nyo ba madaling maglaru at gumawa ng 31 points sa basketball lahat un pinaghirapan nya..ampness

  • MEATBALL says:

    @TRANSPORTER

  • money villar says:

    ipupusta daw ni money villar sa UE ang C5-extension sa next game…walang iwanan…

  • Galactic Alignment says:

    The UE Rec Warriors are popularly known as the off season Dominators. Panahon pa nina James Yap, Ronald Tubid and Paul Artadi to Mark Borboran, Marcy Arellano, and James Martinez up to this present team.

    Well, I remember once in an interview from the Legendary coach of the San Beda Red Cubs on his secret on why his players are so great:
    “There is really no secret, we just let the boys play all the time, even during summer and vacations”.

    Baka ganun ang gustong mangyari ng Red Warriors.

  • Palakang Ungas says:

    @camfrog boy..

    Ang baho mo. di ka naman marunong magbasketball kung umasta ka parang mas magaling ka pa kay kobe at lebron. Wake up men.. maligo ka nga. Big Looser

  • REDTUBE says:

    dami nag aabangan na e tetelecast sa s2dio 23 tapos naging billiards CORNY

  • watcher... says:

  • Galactic Alignment says:

    Tapos, the return of the newly crowned NCAA Champions, the San Sebastian Golden Stags.

    Dati pala tinambakan na ng Ateneo Blue Eagles ang Baste Golden Stags noon. Champion’s League din, pero di ko maalala kung anong year.
