NOPSSCEA MEN’S BASKETBALL
Mustangs vs. Rams Game 2 uncertain
as UNO-R appeals for neutral ground

The second game in the best-of-three final series of the NOPSSCEA Season 32 men’s basketball between the defending champion West Negros University Mustangs and the University of Negros Occidental-Recoletos Rams now hangs in the balance after UNO-R wrote to the NOPSSCEA Board of Directors seeking a neutral ground after WNU hosted Game 1.

Fr. Louie Gabinete, UNO-R Vice President for Student’s Welfare, said they are not sure if they are playing in Game 2 until the NOPSSCEA acts on their letter and make a decision.

“We will respect and will abide with what the NOPSSCEA will decide. We only wanted to be clarified on certain things, including the possibility of holding Game 2 on neutral ground,” Gabinete said.

The University of Negros Occidental-Recoletos men and women’s table tennis teams captured the championship in this year’s edition of the NOPSSCEA competition with a dominating performance over the weekend at the Lopue’s San Sebastian Department Store, Annex Building in Bacolod City.

It was the 5th consecutive NOPSSCEA crown for the George Jimenez-mentored UNO-R women’s team, while the men’s squad successfully defended the title it won last year.

The members of the UNO-R men’s champion team, who are also active members of Lopue’s Table Tennis Association, are John Paul Gubaton, Mark Lisas, Joey Bana-ag and Elbert Salandaguit, while the women’s team is composed of Rose Jean Fadol, Sheryl Otanez, Benjielyn Dayap, Meryll Rojo, Ivy Espiritu and Jerelyn Concepcion.
