Benilde downs hapless San Sebastián

MANILA, Philippines — College of Saint Benilde did not allow San Sebastián College-Recoletos to crack into the win column after a 73-66 win in the crossover round of the NCAA Season 102 men’s basketball tournament on Monday afternoon at the Filoil EcoOil Centre in San Juan City. San Sebastián controlled the game early for the first three frames, 54-51,  but Benilde pulled a fourth-quarter fiery surge, scoring 22 points in the final canto and limiting the Stags to just 16 points, 77-63. Alaine Cajucom led the scoring for the Blazers with 20 points along with five rebounds, two assists, and two steals.  “We know that San Sebastián will really fight in this game, so we remained aggressive. We pushed through, and we made sure to take the victory,” Cajucom said in Filipino.  Aside from Cajucom’s high-scoring output, Jhomel Anchet and Justine Sanchez added 14 and 12 markers, each, while Ian Torres and John Morales added 10 and seven points, apiece. Benilde improved to a 5-1 win-loss record, while the Golden Stags are still looking for their first victory, 0-6. Christian Ricio tried to put up a fight for San Sebastián with 15 points, and Kent Bacani added 16 markers, but it was not enough to overcome the Blazers.

Spurs' Harris questionable for regular-season opener after straining left calf

SAN ANTONIO — San Antonio Spurs forward Tobias Harris will miss the preseason and is questionable for the start of the regular season after suffering a strained left calf during training camp. Harris, who signed as a free agent on July 6, did not participate in the team’s annual intrasquad Silver & Black scrimmage on Sunday. The 6-foot-8 power forward will be reevaluated following the team’s five-game preseason schedule. Team officials said Harris is questionable for the regular-season opener against Oklahoma City on Oct. 20 in a rematch of last season’s Western Conference Finals. Harris signed a two-year contract with San Antonio after spending the past two seasons with Detroit. He averaged 13.3 points, 5.1 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 27.7 minutes last season to help the Pistons finish atop the Eastern Conference standings.

Angelica Yulo glad to finally meet Rovelyn Baterbonia

MANILA, Philippines — Rovelyn Baterbonia, mother of the late Ateneo basketball player Rene Baterbonia, has gained a new friend in Angelica Yulo, mother of two-time Olympic gold medalist Carlos Yulo. The two were recently seen sharing a meal together. Rovelyn, who now runs a business selling her late son’s merchandise and memorabilia, has faced heavy scrutiny on social media—much like Angelica, whose public rift with her son Carlos surfaced online after his double-gold triumph at the Paris 2024 Olympics. Rovelyn posted a photo of the two of them on Facebook with the caption “Basher attack.” Angelica reshared it and expressed her excitement: “FINALLY!!!” Angelica currently resides in Manila, while Rovelyn is based in Agusan del Sur.
