CHIANG Kai Shek College turned back University of San Carlos, 79-50, to rule the Milo Best Center Passerelle crown recently at University of the Assumption gym in San Fernando, Pampanga.
With John Vincent Gallego at the helm and the alumni, led by former coach Sunny Co, cheering them on all the way, the Blue Dragons exploded in the second quarter for the title.
Coach Goldwyn Monteverde attributed their success to their new found confidence which they gained by competing in the Philippine Secondary School Basketball Championship (PSSBC).
It was a fitting follow-up to their title conquest in the Metro Manila Tiong Lian Basketball League.
Gallego led the Blue Dragons with 22 points, including back-to-back triples that sparked a 12-2 run for a 27-17 lead they never let go of.
