PBL -Athletes Haven Cup umpisa na

-
Unang panalo ang aasintahin ng Challenge Cup champion Shark Energy Drink at ng four-time titlist Welcoat Paints sa kanilang debut kontra sa local Baguio teams sa pagbubukas ngayon ng hostilidad ng 2nd PBL-Athletes Haven Cup sa Baguio City Foundation gym.

Makakaharap ng Power Boosters ang Gilligan’s Island sa alas-5 ng hapon sa unang laro, habang magtitipan naman ang Paint Masters at ang Baguio selection sa alas-7 ng gabi.

Lalaro ang Shark na wala ang kanilang tatlong key players na sina Chester Tolomia, Gilbert Malabanan at Rysal Castro na kasalukuyang naglalaro sa NCAA at UAAP tournaments.

Gayunman, nananatiling kumpiyansa si coach Leo Austria dahil sa pagkakaroon niya ng 6’7 manlalaro na si Irvin Sotto at Rolly Basilides na siyang mangunguna sa frontline na siguradong makakakuha ng suporta mula kina Slam Dunk King Manuel Caceres, Michael Robinson at Warren Ybañez at ang nagbabalik na si Renato Alfor-que.

"I’m sure these guys will rise to the challenge. If they were taking the backseat roles during the regular season, this tournament will be their chance to shine and prove themselves equally valuable to the team," pahayag ni Austria.

Sa kabila ng pagkawala naman ni Renren Ritualo, nananatiling intact pa rin ang line-up ng Welcoat at umaasa sila na maaagaw nila ang titulo mula sa PBL-Athletes Haven Cup champion Blu Detergent na nakatakdang magpakita ng aksiyon sa Martes.

Babanderahan ni PBL Chairman’s Cup MVP Jojo Manalo ang opensa ng Welcoat Paints kasama sina Brixter Encarnacion, Eugene Tan at ang twin-tower combination nina 6’8 Yancy de Ocampo at 6’9 Frederick Canlas.
