San Sebastian shoots for win No. 6

(From Manila Bulletin)

August 2, 2010, 8:25am

Games Monday (The Arena, San Juan)
10 a.m. — SSC-R vs CSB (Jrs)
12 noon — EAC vs Mapua (Jrs)
2 p.m. — SSC-R vs CSB (Srs)
4 p.m. — EAC vs Mapua (Srs)

Expect another gung-ho performance from Calvin “The Beast” Abueva as San Sebastian College goes for win No. 6 and the solo lead against College of St. Benilde Monday in the 86th NCAA basketball tournament at The Arena in San Juan.

Game time is at 2 p.m. with the Stags, owing to their deeper bench, installed the heavy favorites against the Blazers, who are seeking an end to their two-game skid after winning their initial assignment opposite Arellano University.

The defending champion Stags are hoping for their sixth straight victory that will move them ahead of San Beda College (5-0).

Mapua Institute of Technology tries to follow up its lopsided win against Letran three days ago when the Cardinals mix it up at 4 p.m. against the rejuvenated Emilio Aguinaldo College.

The 6-foot-3 Abueva, who produced a monster game of 16 points and 15 rebounds on top of four steals in the Stags' 72-59 triumph against Jose Rizal University last Friday, will continue to be the prime offensive weapon of San Sebastian.

"He's one reason why we are winning. Even during the practice he plays the same aggressiveness and intensity," Agustin said of Abueva, a Pampanga native, a strong contender for this season's MVP plum.
