Fajardo stars anew for UC
Six-foot-seven beanpole center Jun Mar Fajardo scored 30 points to help UC/Aspac Bank outlast DBTC/Unilab-Alaxan 100-90 for its second victory in the Reinforced Partner’s Cup last Thursday at the Cebu Coliseum.
Fajardo struck hardest in the fourth quarter when DBTC had gotten the momentum after overcoming a 26-point deficit.
DBTC has come within 69-75 at the start of the fourth period when Coach Roel Gomez sued for time and sent Fajardo back into the game.
UC had built a 60-34 lead and Coach Gomez decided to give Fajardo some rest. Without Fajardo in the paint, DBTC assembled a comeback run that put them within 67-74 at the end of third.
The scores:
UC/Aspac Bank (100)- Fajardo 30, Abellanosa 16, Abella 14, Abatayo 13, Agas 7, Flanco 4, Juliane 4, Ducay 4, Del Rosario 3, Connors 2, Espinoza 1
DBTC/Unilab-Alaxan (90)- Perturbos 18, Apura 13, Colegado 12, Sunga 10, Villaver 8, Bugtai 6, Enterina 6, Alferez 4, Delosa Santos 4, Sasuman 4, Bugtai 4, Baring 3 Halftime: 60-34 (GGM)
