SBP, passerelle
Visayas tilts on
FALCONS GUN FOR 2 CROWNS
BY CEDELF TUPAS
St. John's Institute guns for two basketball titles this weekend when its high school and elementary basketball teams see action in the Milo SBP and Passerelle Visayas finals at the West Negros College Gym in Bacolod City .
The schedules of the games had yet to be determined as of press deadline pending the draw slated late yesterday.
The Falcons, who ruled the SBP provincial eliminations with a repeat victory over the University of St. La Salle in the finals, will go up against Ateneo De Iloilo and Sacred Heart School of Cebu City in their division.
SJI coach Arvin Gustilo expressed optimism of a strong showing for his team, which finished third last year. 
| Lopue's prevails, Pre-tournament favorite Batch 1999-2000 Lopue's secured its third straight victory, following a 101-85 conquest of Batch 1994-1995 Copix One Wednesday night in the St. John's Institute Alumni Basketball Tournament at the SJI Activity Center in Bacolod City . Fielding a complete and formidable 15-man line-up, the Lopue's cagers proved too much for a shorthanded Copix One quintet. Rhett Demonteverde fired three straight triples as Lopue's went beyond recall in the fourth quarter. Complementing Demonteverde's hot shooting was former varsity star Paolo Li, who chalked in 23 points. |
| BUS Group League leader St. John's Institute is favored for a sweep when it tackles Trinity Christian School at 11 a.m. today at the close of first round action of BUS-Group organized by Panasonic Cup 12-Under at Po Hang gym.

University of St. La Salle will play against TCS at 8 a.m. and the Stallions will challenge Bacolod Tay Tung High School at 9:30. |
