NINE-TIME champion University of the Visayas (UV) Green Lancers wasted a 23-point lead then survived repeated rallies to beat the University of San Carlos (USC) Warriors, 77-63, and secure solo second place in the 2013 Cebu Schools Athletic Foundation Inc. (Cesafi) basketball tournament at the Cebu Coliseum last night.
Reigning Rookie/MVP Hernal “Wowie” Escosio and crafty guard John Abad prevented the Haier-backed Lancers from breaking apart when the Warriors turned a seemingly lopsided
game into a close one.
