versus Harbour’s dynasty
|
|
By Llanesca T. Panti Reporter
AFTER topping the field for the
last two months, undefeated Hapee Toothpaste and three-time champion
Harbour Centre battle for the biggest prize in the best-of-three
finals of the 2008 PBL V-Go Extreme Energy Drink Cup starting
Thursday at the Arena in San Juan.
Both ballclubs are tournament

Fil-Am Gabe Norwood of US NCAA Div. 1 George Mason University and
the Batang Pier loaded with youthful UAAP superstars such as Tyrone
Tang, Rico Maierhofer of 2007 UAAP champions De La Salle University,
and athletic forwards Edwin Asoro (NU) and Dylan Ababou (UST).
