LSGH nails 10th straight NCAA Jr. football title

La Salle Green Hills-College of St. Benilde fashioned out a dramatic 2-0 win over San Beda recently to complete an unprecedented 10 consecutive junior football title in the NCAA Season �87 at the PhilSports turf in Pasig City.

Rookie Mathew Custodio struck in the 13th minute and Best Striker Anton Celdran doubled the lead for LSGH after a free kick from just outside the box in the 37th.
San Beda came back hard but the Blazers� defense, built around co-captains Joaquin Atayde and Eugene De Chavez, and Best Defender Julito Asparen and goalkeeper Enrico Barcia frustrated the Red Cubs� offense.

Team skipper and MVP Jeune Custodio III kept order in the LSGH midfield in the first half until he was carried out on a stretcher with a knee injury after a collision.

The other awardees in the junior division were Ronilio Bayan Jr. of Arellano University (Best Goalkeeper), Roberto Plopinio of SBC (Best Midfielder) and Edienzel Mark Vilizano of Perpetual Help (Best Scorer). The Fair Play Award went to LSGH.

The Red Lions retained their seniors crown after sweeping the first and second rounds.

Lions topple Pirates, keep football lead

Defending champion San Beda College whipped guest squad Lyceum, 3-1, to stay on top even as De La Salle-College of St. Benilde blanked University of Perpetual Help System Dalta, 3-0, for its second victory in three games in the eighth NCAA football tournament at the Philsports Arena in Pasig City.

The Pirates actually scored the opening goal courtesy of Raffy Cabog in the 15th minute but were held scoreless the rest of the way.

Jim Ashley Flores tied the match in the 38th minute while Neil Dorimon closed the half with another goal in the 45th minute.

Jay Shaun Soberano secured the win with another goal in the 76th minute as the Red Lions streaked to their fourth consecutive victory.

The Lyceum booters dropped to 1-3-0 (win-loss-draw).

The Blazers, meanwhile, drew two goals from Ralph Lauren Porteria and another from Roald Tamsi to crush the Altas and move to solo third at 2-1-1 behind the Emilio Aguinaldo College Generals (3-1-0).

The Altas took their fifth straight loss.

In the juniors side, the Red Cubs blasted the Junior Pirates, 9-0, to grab solo lead with six wins, while defending champion CSB-LSGH Greenies ripped the Altalettes, 7-0, to stay at solo third with a 4-1-0 win-loss-draw mark, behind the second-running Arellano Chiefs (5-1-0).

The Altalettes absorbed their third setback against four wins to remain at fourth.

NCAA - Lions share football lead

By Joey Villar (The Philippine Star) Updated February 07, 2011 12:00 MANILA, Philippines

Last year�s runner up San Beda downed defending champion St. Benilde, 2-0, to gain a share of the lead in the 86th NCAA football competition at the University of Makati field over the weekend.

Striker Roy Lanting scored on the 63rd minute before Francis Sumudivilla came out of nowhere and knocked in another goal from near midcourt exactly 20 minutes later to clinch the win for the Lions.

San Beda, which bucked the loss of ace striker David Fornea late in the first half, thus drew level with St. Benilde with 12 points but the former gain the solo lead with a win over unpredictable Perpetual Help Altas in their last assignment in the single-round eliminations.

The win also foiled St. Benilde�s sweep bid as the Blazers took their first loss after sweeping their first four matches.

It was also sweet revenge for the Mendiola-based booters, who lost the crown to the Blazers on a 0-1 decision in last year�s finale.

In the other men�s match, Arellano routed Perpetual Help, 13-1, to join idle Emilio Aguinaldo at third spot on 1-1-2 (win-loss-draw) slates.

The Altas fell to 1-0-3.

In junior�s action, CSB and San Beda fought to a scoreless draw while Arellano blasted Perpetual Help, 8-1, to stay in the title hunt.
