Mandaluyong nips Cebu in basketball
DON Bosco-Cebu suffered a heartbreaking loss to Don Bosco-Mandaluyong, 62-65, after the 3-point shot by Cebu’s Richard Gon Tecson – that could have extended the game five more minutes – was nullified by game officials in the Inter-Don Bosco Schools basketball tournament at the DBTC Gym.
The win kept Mandaluyong undefeated in the tournament Niño Carballo had a team-high 17 for Mandaluyong, which will next face Don-Bosco Makati at 9 a.m. today after Cebu’s crucial game against Tarlac.
