Mason Amos, the high profile transferee from Ateneo this year, had a forgettable debut for La Salle, but Jacob Cortez came to the rescue as the Archers survived Olivarez College Sea Lions, 88-82, at the start of the PGFlex Linoleum Invitational Tournament on Monday, Oct. 21, at the Paco Arena in Manila.
Nelson Guevarra , president of PGFlex Linoleum, makes the ceremonial toss during the opening game between Manila Central University and Immaculada Concepcion College in the collegiate pre-season tournament held Monday at the Paco Arena in Manila.
Amos, however, was perfect from the free throw area as he made all his four gift shots – a sign that he could be lethal once he gets his offensive rhythm. The cat-quick Cortez tallied 20 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists in more than 31 minutes of play, enough to make up for Mason’s awful shooting. Also getting off to a winning start was Manila Central University which routed league newcomer Immaculada Concepcion College, 82-66, behind the hot-shooting duo of RJ Tadeo and MJ Joson.
