Lactea on a roll
THE Lactea quintet continued its amazing roll in the Punta Princesa Sports Assocaition (PPSA)-Tribu Guardo Sinulog Cup basketball tournament, givng a 102-82 beating to Julies Bakeshop-Oslob Branch last Wednesday at the Vicente Sotto Memorial Sports Complex in Barangay Punta Princesa to take the solo leadership in the quarterfinal round.
Playing coach Jun Felicitas and former USP Panther Dodong Espinosa spearheaded Lactea's offensive attack, while the duo of Luther Magallano and Jongjong Zafra took charge of the suffocating defense that had the team dominating Julies from start to finish.
