TORONTO, Canada: Part of my job as San Beda Red Lions team manager is to scout for potential recruits to ensure the team’s competitiveness each year. And since the shift to the K to 12 Program in the high school educational system in the country has resulted to an added two years of high school, the availability of most blue chip junior prospects was also pushed to 2018. This has compelled me to look for other sources of talent outside the country. And since the Red Lions will have their annual summer training in Las Vegas, the United States’ west coast would be an ideal place to hunt for prospects. After all, it’s no secret that there are over a million Pinoys in the state of California.
