The 2007 Pisay Alumni Basketball League started last July 1 at the PSHS Gym, with 6 games played. Recap of the batch’s first game (vs Batch 98) is as follows:

In easily the biggest game of the opening playdate, two-time champions Batch 96 edged 3-time runners-up Batch 98, 57-55 in OT. Batch 96, featuring the dynamic duo of Jon “The Answer” Aguirre and Peng “Frisbee” Manlapaz, had a chance to ice the game in regulation, but missed FTs allowed 98 to tie and send the game to an extra period. 96 proved steadier in OT however, as they contained Karlo “The Triggerman” Hombrebueno and big man Andrew Pinlac scoreless in the last 5 minutes. Manlapaz led 96with 23 points, supported by Aguirre’s 13. Hans “Macho Man” Acain and Hombrebueno led 98 with 16 points apiece.
