CEBU CITY, Philippines — The two competing squads of the Sacred Heart School Alumni Basketball Athletic Association (SHAABAA) had contrasting fates in their much-awaited Inter-Alumni Invitational tournament games last Sunday, July 7, at the Benedicto College gymnasium.

The SHAABAA Magis won against the University of San Carlos (USC) NABC, 83-78, while the SHAABAA Eagles lost to the Don Bosco College selection lopsidedly, 50-76.

SHAABAA Magis relied on  the hardcourt brilliance of Puresteel Manufacturing Corporation-Batch 2011’s Bernard Chioson who finished with a game-high 18 points. He paired it with five rebounds, four assists, and a steal.

The Magis led as many as 13 points, 30-17, in the first half, but the USC-NABC fought back that resulted to the seven lead changes before they clinched the win.
