Perpetual Help booters seek second IPPCA victory
PERPETUAL Help seeks a second victory when it tackles Xavier School in the juniors division of the 2012 IPPCA Football Pre-Season Cup at Nuvali Field in Sta. Rosa, Laguna.
The Altalletes opened their campaign with an 11-2 stomping of the Letran Squires. But they are expected to have a tougher time against a Xavier team which is banking on a solid school-based program.
Two more games are on top in the weekends-only tournament with the Squires hoping to bounce back against the debuting Far Eastern U Baby Tamaraws, even as Holistic Education and Development Center battle the University of Santo Tomas Tiger Cubs.
