Siloys vs MCBA today

THE CEBU DAILY NEWS Siloys take time out from their busy schedule to play a friendly game against the Mabolo Community Basketball Association (MCBA) today at the Mabolo Sports Complex.

Odds are stacked against the Siloys as they try to overcome a depleted lineup as Jonas Panerio, the towering Lito Tecson and the run-and-gun Edouard Illut will not be able to suit up due to prior commitments.

CDN will be missing Panerio’s perimeter scoring and the shot-blocking presence of Tecson. Illut’s absence left a big hole in the point guard rotation.

Without Panerio, Illut and Tecson, playing coach Brian Ochoa will try to squeeze the most out of Neil Tecson, Atoy Lagunay, Johann   Juntilla, Jay Labra and  Tito Tan.

Also ready to lend a hand for the North Reclamation Area-based Siloys are Junjie Mendoza, Calvin Cordova, Dale Rosal, Sammy Yncierto and Reynald Tiro.

Teamwork and familiarity with each other will MCBA’s main arsenals as it tries to play a rude host to the visiting Siloys.

MCBA of coach Jovy Lepiten will be led by the group’s president, barangay Mabolo councilor Arnel Cui and vice president Edward Ligas.

MCBA will also have Chief Insp. Romeo Santander, SPO1 Raymond Supatan, Tong Abelarde, Rolando Rita, Dante Orendain, Roland Menina, Edwin Yaris, Mckoy Sarvida, Roel Pistolante, Boyet Adlawan, Cris Ofqueria and Roxan Razon. MCBA will host a lunch right after the exhibition match. /EDITORIAL ASSISTANT CALVIN D. CORDOVA
