First, I wish to congratulate the Letran Knights for bagging the NCAA Season 91 basketball title by besting the former five-time defending champs San Beda College (SBC) Red Lions in a thrilling 85-82 overtime win in Game 3 of the Finals.

Coach Aldin Ayo’s wards displayed an enormous heart during the pressure-packed game and overcame the bigger Lions. Kudos to my favorite Letran player—Finals MVP Mark Cruz. After the 2012 Finals, which SBC won over Letran, I told Mark that he would have other chances at the championship. He finally got his taste of the NCAA crown last Thursday on his final game in college basketball. Props also to Fr. Vic Calvo, Kevin Racal, Rey Nambatac, Jomari Sollano, McJour Luib and company, and the coaching staff, especially my friends Louie Gonzales and Glenn Capacio. Indeed, a well-deserved win.
