Cesafi juniors: Dragons take down Magis Eagles
The Cebu Eastern College (CEC) Dragons surprised the rebuilding powerhouse Sacred Heart School-Ateneo de Cebu Magis Eagles with a 49-39 victory in a surprisingly low-scoring ball game in the high school division of the Cesafi basketball tournament on Saturday at the Cebu Coliseum.
The Dragons took full advantage of a squad filled with rookies and held them to subpar shooting all-game long.
Jansen Tiu led CEC, which improved to 2-0, with 14 points, five rebounds and two steals while Ric Rodriguez added 11.
Nobody reached double figures for Ateneo de Cebu.
In the second game, the reigning high school titleholders University of the Visayas (UV) Baby Lancers debuted in style, winning over the University of San Carlos (USC) Baby Warriors, 89-75.
Versatile forward Joshua Yerro and speedy guard Gabriel Cometa carried the fight for UV with 25 and 23 points, respectively.
