Transcript

00:00He's a good player, he steps up because he's giving everyone a chance.

00:04And if you're really gonna watch their games, the past few games,

00:06everyone is giving a chance to play, to showcase their talent.

00:09And, you know, so far, it's okay.

00:13Akom takes the first shot for EAC.

00:16LPU gets the stop at the bar, but will continue to come off the bench.

00:20Coach Gilbert is going in for a fight.

00:25Montano.

00:28Guadagna.

00:30Coming off that career high, 46 points.

00:33And Guadagna.

00:36I did not expect that early shot. He's still checking if the heat is still there.

00:40Yes, but you know, that's one thing you can expect from him to start aggressively.

00:45Especially, he's been playing so well the past few games,

00:48and that's really important for them to set the tone on this game.

00:52Axel Doromal.

00:53We're still waiting for his breakout game here at NCAA.

00:59Former star point guard of Arellano, now with EAC.

01:03Hakob again, and Hakob able to draw the foul.

01:06That was beautiful. He just let it go.

01:09You even caught it.

01:13And of course, he got a foul, and the foul he got was important.

01:18So, the first two shots, the dem sprints, coming from the most unexpected guy on the floor, Hakob.

01:25You would think it would be one of the members of the big three.

01:29Doromal, Patsanjan, and Gurtiza.

01:34Again, I just want to tell you that he's really giving the players a chance to step up.

01:40And you know, if they have someone who plays well, he's giving them more time.

01:48And by doing so, you're giving the opponents a hard time on scouting.

01:53That's the Axel Doromal that we know, Prince.

01:58Alright, I did mention that there are some injury updates.

02:01Let's get them right now.

02:02And more from Christine Sanagustin.

02:05Coming from tough losses and with their backs against the wall,

02:08both teams are eager to bounce back and prove their resilience in today's game.

02:12In EAC, the condition of their injured players hasn't changed,

02:17especially King Gurtiza.

02:18I mentioned earlier that he has an injury to his right hand.

02:21But now, it has been added because he has sustained an injury to his left foot

02:26that came from their last game.

02:28Meanwhile, all is well.

02:29Players from LPUC, Coach Gilbert Malabar.

02:38But he still showed up.

02:40Because for him, today is a big day.

02:44But he still showed up.

02:45Because for him, today is a big day.

02:47That the Pirates rise again.

02:48That's the news from the court side.

02:50Anton and Prince.

02:51Thank you for all of those updates, Christine.

02:53But as she was reporting, this is not a welcome sight.

02:58We do not want to see this.

03:00Coming off his best game in his career,

03:04Maklad Guadagna turns his right ankle.

03:09I think his teammate is the one who stabbed him.

03:14And you know, no one would wish to injure one of our players.

03:19But you know, hopefully, he can come back later.

03:22And hopefully, his ankle is nothing serious.

03:25And I'm also concerned for Coach Gilbert Malabanan.

03:28Although, the guy sitting beside me went through the opening day.

03:31He felt the chills, but still had to come to work.

03:35So power through, right?

03:36And sometimes, that's luck.

03:39You never know.

03:40Again, like what Coach said.

03:42We're hoping he'll be able to stay.

03:46And here we go.

03:48Atobarba still on the bench for LVU.

03:52Penafiel.

03:53Aviles.

03:56Aviles looking for a friend.

03:58Given to Greg Punanan.

04:03Shot was short for Montano.

04:08You know, Anton.

04:09You know, Anton.

04:10Earlier, when we were introducing these players,

04:13you mentioned that part of the EAC is that the players of Klyceum are really big.

04:18And you know, I think that's something that they should really explore.

04:23The mismatch they'll get after those ball screens, after those cuts.

04:29That's the best way to maximize it.

04:31I think there's a chance also to the big guys of LVU.

04:35Even running both on offense and on defense.

04:37Playing defense to the opponents.

04:39You know, that's something you can reward to them.

04:43And speaking of the big men, here's Avenes.

04:47Missing on that mid-range shot.

04:50Pagsanhan attacking.

04:51And Harvey Pagsanhan finishes.

04:58Let's see if that will open the floodgates for Harvey Pagsanhan.

05:05You know, I've been waiting for him to have a breakout game also.

05:11I've seen him play.

05:12And you know, he has a lot in his bag also.

05:19You can see he's got the speed, the balance, the athleticism, and most of all, the posture.

05:26He has probably the best back posture in the entire NCAA.

05:30Of course.

05:31And you can see how his chest came out.

05:34It's like when you shoot, you already know what you're going to shoot.

05:37That's the confidence that we should have.

05:41Gurtiza hesitates, drops, loses control.

05:45The ball goes back to the Piratas.

05:47What a pass!

05:48Pinafiel with the finish.

05:52That's what they call a touchdown.

05:58EAC defense is not ready.

06:02Normal.

06:06Kicks it out.

06:07Jello.

06:08Loristo for three.

06:14They might not be tall enough.

06:17The court, and you know, making sure that the big man of the opponent

06:21goes up and out of the three points so that the space for the guards to get inside is wider.

06:28Axel to Gurtiza to Pagsanhan.

06:32That's the big three going to work.

06:34Dorobal for three.

06:36Axel Dorobal.

06:37There you go.

06:40Speaking of opening the floodgates for EAC,

06:44after that Harvey Pagsanhan layup, EAC made two back, two triples.

06:51So the adjustment of Coach Gerson Cabildes doing wonders for EAC,

06:56but he was left out.

06:58Benegas.

06:59Here's Jacob.

07:03And this three-pointer is only the second three of General Loristo in this game.

07:11Then he was followed by Axel Dorobal who's got five points.

07:16EAC is up ten to four.

07:26Ancheta.

07:29Let's see if they'll try to establish Liwag.

07:32Inon pulls up for three.

07:35Alan Liwag.

07:38What a pass to Ancheta.

07:40And Ancheta is able to score.

07:46And gives the lead back to Benilde.

07:48Communication on the sunbed.

07:55Let's do a roll call with the members of the Management Committee.

07:59And I see Dr. Lorenzo Lorenzo of Emilio Aguinaldo College.

08:03I also see Sir Hercules Calianta, Mancom Chairman.

08:08There he is.

08:12Sir Herc.

08:13Coach Herc.

08:15However you like it.

08:16Chairman Herc.

08:18Here in Season 100 of the NCAA.

08:20The first time that LPU is hosting the season.

08:34Benegas sinks the first free throw.

08:47Perfect from the line.

08:49Renz Benegas.

08:51That's what the LPU needs to maximize.

08:55That's what the LPU needs to maximize.

08:58It's for them to make those free throws.

09:00Earlier, you said Macuadanya was one out of 50% in free throws.

09:05Imagine what they can add to the outcome of their games

09:09if they can add their percentage in free throws.

09:13Dorobal.

09:15Dorobal.

09:18Not that time.

09:19Wow.

09:20Pagsanhan just snatching that rebound.

09:23Away from the opponent.

09:25Gurtiza.

09:26Jacob.

09:28Dorobal.

09:30Bitten.

09:31Pagsanhan.

09:33Pagsanhan.

09:38So this is the best start for Pagsanhan and Dorobal

09:42in an EAC General's uniform.

09:48Both players combining for 9 points already in the first period.

09:54You know, earlier I was thinking that in the EAC,

09:57LPU will be smaller and bigger.

10:00That LPU will dominate them in terms of rebounding.

10:04And as far as this game is going,

10:06EAC has been all over the place in terms of offensive rebounds.

10:11Getting those extra attempts, extra possessions for them.

10:14Yeah, right now the Generals out-rebounding LPU 9 to 5.

10:18They have three offensive rebounds.

10:20Gurtiza.

10:22Wow.

10:23The big three are firing on all cylinders.

10:31What a start for the Generals.

10:34Making sure to keep that fire hot.

10:37The firing squad.

10:38And here it is.

10:39Montano with the response.

10:45So it's confirmed.

10:46We receive the report.

10:47Right ankle sprain.

10:50For Baclot Guadagna.

10:53And Loristo, second triple.

10:58Okay.

11:00Now we're familiar with your game.

11:03EAC leads Lyceum 13 at 18 to 9.

11:09And that's why he is there.

11:14That's why EAC transfers him to a zone.

11:18Manguban drains the triple.

11:22The first point in our game for Lorenz Manguban.

11:25Make the most out of it.

11:26Because you don't know when Lorenz will come back.

11:28You don't know when your teammates will bounce back.

11:31That's right.

11:32So it's necessary.

11:33Here it is again.

11:34So it's necessary.

11:35Here it is again.

11:37And Lorenz Manguban drains his second one from the same spot.

11:47The EAC Generals coming out like a firing squad.

11:53Four different players connecting from downtown.

11:57You're going to see a variety of student athletes hit from beyond that arc.

12:08You know, EAC Generals has been living up to its name so far.

12:12They've been shooting the lights out in this game.

12:16Atobarba.

12:18Number one scorer in the NCAA is now in.

12:24And he shoots.

12:27Short on his first shot.

12:33But there's a foul that was called here by Oktana.

12:39Foul on number 91, Wilmar Oktana.

12:42That's his first whistle foul.

12:45Three on the Generals.

12:53Foul.

12:58Villegas looking for a friend.

13:02Oktana with the interception.

13:04He returned the foul with that steal.

13:11Gurtiza.

13:13And off to Lucero.

13:15Lucero to Gurtiza for three.

13:18Another one.

13:19He checks.

13:20He checks.

13:21He checks.

13:25The Generals' hands are shaking.

13:28Biggest lead of the game.

13:34Atobarba's got to do something to right the ship.

13:39Barba against Oktana.

13:41Barba on the attack.

13:43Atobarba wills his way to the basket.

13:46He's ready to put out the fire of the EAC by that shot.

13:52But you know, EAC is up by ten with two minutes left in this quarter.

13:59Lucero inside pass.

14:01Luciano.

14:03Great patience and timing.

14:05I love that.

14:06I love how he shot that, you know, after that two pump fakes.

14:10Making sure he jumped on the second one to get that comfortable shot in.

14:15Kaduyak.

14:17And Kaduyak is able to score.

14:21Bombs away here in the first quarter.

14:31Prince, both teams combined have shot seven made triples.

14:36And you know, to start a game with seven made triples,

14:40you know that today's going to be a great day.

14:43Imagine starting off hot.

14:45What else can they do?

14:46What else can they give for the second, third, and fourth quarter?

14:53Atobarba.

14:58Does not receive the ball in that possession.

15:01Heat check.

15:02Heat check for Kaduyak.

15:05Kinal.

15:07Baseline floater.

15:08Wow!

15:09EAC is so patient.

15:12EAC is more patient now.

15:15If you look at their team now,

15:17and the moves and shots they got,

15:20it's like they're so patient that they got the kind of diva they wanted.

15:25Barba grabs his own miss.

15:28Barba throws it out.

15:30Villegas looks up at the clock.

15:33Villegas pulls up for three.

15:37My goodness!

15:38Even Coach Gilbert Palabana is feeling the chills.

15:45Now they have a combined eight three-pointers in this quarter.

15:51Lucero glides to the basket.

15:56He's like Pati, he's surprised that he's so open in that layup.

16:03Lucero.

16:07In front of Greg Gunana.

16:09Now the ball is with Barba.

16:12Barba steps back for three.

16:15Short. Lucero.

16:16Lead pass.

16:18Luciano creating space.

16:20And that's a foul on Kaduyak.

16:28Look at the fluid motion there by Kinal.

16:31And then the gutsy pull-up three by Renz Villegas.

16:39How about that hop step?

16:48The fire and the energy.

16:50You can see that in the facial expressions of our players from EAC.

16:55You know how much energy their first group provided.

16:59And you know, to maintain that, it's going to be tough.

17:02I mean, coming in off, coming off from the bench.

17:06Especially your first group, they showed a great performance.

17:09And you have to fill their shoes.

17:11That's going to be tough.

17:12But you know, so far, they've been doing great.

17:15Tylek, also coming off an impressive performance.

17:19Panelo, missing.

17:22There's still time.

17:24But Luciano took the lead.

17:26Oh, I'm not sure.

17:28That was not very nice, but OK.

17:32EAC is off to a good start.

17:34They lead LPU by 11, 28-17 at the end of the first quarter.
