Gummy Bears blasts Restbak

Team Gummy Bears’s championship redemption started with a bang after a dominating victory against new team Restback on Saturday, May 6, during Opening Day of the APCRAA Basketball Tournament Season 7 at the APC Gymnasium.

The team formerly known as Bumblebees limited Restback to 9 points in the first and fourth quarters.

The award was given by Ms. France Marie Sumang, APC Alumni Affairs head and Dann Garcia, APCRAA President and APCRAA Basketball Tournament commissioner.

For Team Restbak, Jeff Bacong was their leading scorer with 17 points with 6 rebounds and 2 steals. Christian Gabon contributed 11 points and 3 rebounds.
