UAAP approves the “Jerry Pingoy Rule”

11 Mar

The University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) board by a vote of 5-2 has approved a new rule that will somehow hinder star players from their respective high school programs from transferring to a competing UAAP college program.   The new rule could be dubbed as the Jerie Pingoy rule after the supposed transfer of the Cebuano basketball star from Far Eastern University (FEU) to the Ateneo de Manila University (ADMU).  The Jerie Pingoy Rule states that a player from a rival UAAP program will have to sit out for 2 years before he can don the colors of his new school in the UAAP Senior’s Basketball tournament.  Should Pingoy transfer to the ADMU Blue Eagles, we can only see him play in the 2015 UAAP tournament.  If he remains in FEU, he can play in 77th season of UAAP, which starts in July 2013.

The UAAP board almost unanimously approved the new rule with only the teams from Katipunan (University of the Philippines and ADMU) voting against it.  The rule also extended the redshirt period of foreigners who want to play in the country’s premier collegiate basketball league from 1 year to 2 years.  Among the affected would be former Southwestern University (SWU) sensation Benoit Mbala who transferred to the De la Salle University (DLSU) Green Archers this past season.  Mbala had Manila schools salivating for his services when he spearheaded the campaign of the SWU Cobras in the Champion’s League Final 4.

Cebu Basketball Round-up (October 2012)

11 Oct

 

SWU Cobras – Champions at last (photo from sunstar.com.ph)

Cesafi Seniors:  Southwestern University wins first ever Cesafi basketball crown

The Southwestern University (SWU) Cobras won the Cebu Schools Athletic Federation Inc. (Cesafi) Collegiate Basketball Championship after beating the formidable University of the Visayas (UV) Green Lancers, 3-2, in a memorable best of five series. SWU won the final game 73-72 after trailing by 49-63 with less than 6 minutes to play. Coach Yayoy Alcoseba unleashed John Augustin Pajantoy to fuel the rally that gave them the improbable Game 5 victory. With a great five game series, it looks like SWU-UV rivalry will rage on in the next few years.  Will SWU keeps it title next year???

SHS-AdC wins first Cesafi title (photo from Sunstar.com.ph)

Cesafi Juniors: Sacred Heart School- Ateneo de Cebu goes undefeated en route to its first Cesafi High School title

The Sacred Heart School- Ateneo de Cebu (SHS-AdC) Magis Eagles capped their amazing season by sweeping the UV Baby Lancers , 3-0, in their Cesafi High School basketball championship series.  It was sweet revenge for the Magis Eagles that lost the title last year in a decisive Game 5 against the Baby Lancers. The series sweep upped the record of the Magis Eagles to 14-0 in this year’s competition.  Arc Gabrielle Araw-Araw scored 19 points to lead SHS-AdC in its game 3 victory. The sweep underscored the SHS-AdC dominance in Cesafi High School ball in the past couple of months. Will this be the start of a Magis Eagles dynasty in the Casafi?

UAAP Seniors: Greg Slaughter caps collegiate career with another title with Ateneo

Former UV big man Greg Slaughter finished his college career by winning another title with Ateneo Blue Eagles.   The Eagles completed its drive for five as they beat the hard-fighting University of Santo Tomas (UST) Growling Tigers. With the victory, Slaughter also completed his drive for five as he won his 2nd title with Ateneo along with his 3 Cesafi collegiate titles with the UV Green Lancers. He was once again selected into the UAAP Mytical Five this year. Ever since Slaugher moved to Manila, the UV Green Lancers has never won another Cesafi title.  Is this the end of the Slaughter Curse for UV??

 

UAAP Juniors: Pingoy leads Baby Tams to its first Junior’s title in 25 years

25 years ago, a point guard named Johnny Abarrientos led the FEU Baby Tamaraws to a UAAP Junior’s division title. Fast forward 2012, another spectacular guard led the Baby Tams to another title.  Former University of Cebu basketball player Jerie Marlon Pingoy scored 32 points in the clinching triple overtime game against the NU Bullpups. Pingoy is the back to back junior’s MVP of the UAAP. After the championship, Pingoy now becomes one the blue chip recruits in next’s year UAAP cage wars.  Will he be donning the Tamaraws jersey or will he be wearing different colors next year?

 

PBA: June Mar Fajardo debuts with Petron

After Greg Slaughter left UV, the University of Cebu Webmasters had a two-year reign of terror behind the behemoth from Pinamungahan named June Mar Fajardo.  After his college career ended, Fajardo played for San Miguel in the Asean Basketball League. When it was announced that Petron (San Miguel’s PBA team) got the first pick of the 2012 PBA Draft, the big man decided to join the PBA. As expected, he was this year’s top over-all pick.  He got his baptism of fire when the Petron Blaze Boosters played the Rain or Shine Elasto Painters in their season debut. He finished with 9 points, 12 rebounds, and 2 blocks in 38 minutes of action. He had decent numbers but he was outplayed by JR Quinahan, a former UV Green Lancer. Petron was routed 102-86.  Petron won its next game over Barako Bull and Fajardo finished with 3 points and 7 reounds.  With the possible entry of Greg Slaughter in the PBA next year, will their rivalry be renewed in the country’s top league?

22nd Fiba Asia Under 18 Championships: Jerie Pingoy scores 25 in PHL’s close victory over Chinese-Taipei

21 Aug

Ulanbaatar, Mongolia –   Cebuano Jerie Marlon Pingoy conspired with U16 Youth Squad holdover and captain Rodolfo “J-Jay” Alejandro in handing a strong Chinese-Taipei squad their first defeat in the 22nd FIBA Asia U18 Championships.  The two rising stars of Philippine basketball combined for 47 markers to lead the Energen Pilipinas U18 Youth Squad to its second straight win in the second phase of the group stages of the 22nd FIBA Asia Under 18 Championships.

The Philippines controlled the first half.  They led at the end of the first period at 17-14.  They continued their steady onslaught in the 2nd period to have a 9-point cushion at the end of two quarters, 43-34. The third period, however, was controlled by Chinese-Taipei as they were able to outscore the wards of coach Olsen Racela, 30-20, to grab a one point lead going to the final period. The fourth period was a virtual see-saw battle and with the Philippines leading 83-82 with over a minute left, Jerie Pingoy completed a clutch 3-point play to extend the lead to 4, 86-82.  After a split by Lee Chua-ji, Taipei was forced to foul Alejandro who cooly sank his pressure packed free throws for the final count at 88-83.

It was a big win for the Philippines as they could clinch the 2nd seed in Group F if they win their next assignment against Bahrain. Taipei could try to complicate matters in the group as they will try to give powerhouse Iran its first loss in the tournament in their next assignment.

Jerie Pingoy top scored for Energen Pilipinas with 25 points.  The reigning UAAP Junior’s MVP also had 2 rebound, 5 assists, and 1 steal while making 11 of his 15 2-point attempts.  Alejandro had 22 points, 9 rebounds,  and 3 triples.  Rey Nambatac had 10 points with 4 steals. Chinese Taipei was led by Lin Kuan-chun’s 25.

Cebu Live’s 8 Questions with Jerie Marlon Pingoy

16 Aug w092
Cebu Live 8 Questions with Jerie Pingoy

FEU-Diliman’s Jerie Marlon Pingoy (courtesy of sis Kath)

Cebu Live had an opportunity to ask 8 questions to one of the best high school basketball players in the country right now.  Cebuano Jerie Marlon Pingoy is the reigning MVP of the UAAP Jr. basketball tournament. His team the FEU-Diliman Baby Tamaraws is currently on top of the standings of Season 75 along with NU Bullpups with similar 6-0 slates. Pingoy is the son of namesake Jerry Pingoy who played in the PBA for Great Taste and Tanduay.  The younger Pingoy is now in Mongolia with the rest of the Energen Pilipinas U-18 team that will play in the 22nd FIBA-Asia U-18 Championships.  Here are his answers to the 8 questions of this blog:

Cebu Live: “What is the difference with your UAAP Jrs. to your Cebu High School league?”
JMP: “It’s very different kay mas daku ni na liga ang UAAP and all the teams kay di basta-basta.” (It’s very different because UAAP is way bigger league than what I am used to and all the teams are strong.)

Cebu Live: “Who is your basketball idol growing up? Local and NBA.”
JMP: “Allen Iverson for the NBA and my father for local.”
Cebu Live: “Whose game are you trying to pattern?”
JMP: “Aside from my father, I’m trying to follow Isaiah Thomas‘ playing style.”
Cebu Live: “How far do you think the Baby Tamaraws go this season?”
JMP: “We are taking it one game at a time and hopefully, we can reach the finals.”
Cebu Live: “What do you miss most about Cebu?”
JMP: “Ay daghan. haha. Especially pagkaon sa Pasil ug pungko-pungko sa Lahug. And of course, my family and friends.” ( Many. Haha. Especially the food in Pasil and “the pungko-pungko” in Lahug. . And of course, my family and friends.)
Ginabot, Ngohiong, etc.

Pungko-Pungko de Cebu ;)

Cebu Live: “How tall are you now?”
JMP: “5’9″
Cebu Live: “Which Brangay did you live in Cebu?”
JMP: “Apas and Pasil”
Cebu Live: “What school did you play for while in Cebu?”
JMP: “I started playing varsity basketball only when I entered high school. I played one year for University of Cebu before moving to FEU”
The true-blue Cebuano could be the next star that will follow of the footsteps of Cebuano guards who succeeded in the Philippine Basketball Association like Boy Cabahug, Al Solis, and Don-Don Hontiveros.  By the end of this year’s basketball season, he will be one of the most sought after recruits in college ranks.  Cebu Live prays for his continued development and success.  This blog will always be a big fan.
