UST, La Salle clash in ECJ Cup
MANILA, Philippines — Seeking a fresh start, UST undergoes a baptism of fire today as it takes on La Salle in the Filoil EcoOil 17th ECJ Preseason Cup.
It’s a much needed reboot for the Growling Tigers, with coach Pido Jarencio pumped to unveil his new-look squad bannered by former UAAP Mythical Team member Forthsky Padrigao.
But there’s more to uncover for UST, with new recruits Kyle Paranada, Leland Estacio, Chase Lane, and Ice Danting all raring to represent España.
“Magandang challenge ito para sa mga bata. Masasabi namin, gutom lahat ito kaya gusto rin namin silang masubukan kontra doon sa mga makakalaban namin,” said Jarencio ahead of the Growling Tigers’ 5 p.m. tiff in this tourney co-presented by Bostik El Heneral and ABC Tile Adhesive, and has Smart Sports, Strong Group Athletics, and Hanes as major sponsors.
For La Salle, it’s a question of how to bounce back after tasting a tough 89-77 loss to rival UP back in opening day last Saturday.
