6PM Battle for 3rd Banadero vs Dos
7:30 SHBC U25 Finals Batang Losnap vs GPC Zonyo (Parian)

VENUE BARANGAY PARIAN COVERED COURT (FARCONVILLE)

Game 2 is set, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. 💥

GPC Parian holds the 1-0 series lead and now returns to their home court with a golden opportunity to close it out in front of their home crowd. With momentum on their side, confidence at an all-time high, and the energy of their supporters behind them, they look to finish the job and be crowned as CHAMPION on their own floor.

Their Game 1 performance showed composure, ex*****on, and the ability to rise in big moments—but the job is far from over.

Because on the other side stands Batang Losnap.

A team built on heart, grit, and relentless energy, Batang Losnap already proved in Game 1 that they are more than capable of challenging GPC Parian. They refused to back down, fighting possession after possession, showing flashes of brilliance that could easily turn the tide of this series. And now, with their backs against the wall, expect them to come out even more dangerous.

Adjustments will be key—both offensively and defensively. Batang Losnap will look to tighten their defense, control the tempo, and capitalize on every opportunity, while GPC Parian aims to stay disciplined, protect their home court, and deliver the knockout punch.

This is where legends are made. This is where composure meets desperation. This is where hunger meets opportunity.

Will GPC Parian rise to the moment, defend their home court, and complete their championship run? Or will Batang Losnap shock the crowd, steal Game 2, and force a winner-take-all Game 3?

One game. One mission. One champion waiting to be crowned. 🏀🔥

After a brutal playoff run, it all comes down to pride and redemption. Banadero and Dos clash one last time—not for the championship, but for honor, momentum, and the right to finish strong in the South Hoops Ballers Club U25 League.

This is where character is tested. Every possession matters. Every stop is personal. No excuses, no backing down—just pure heart on the line at 6:00 PM.

Who takes home 3rd place glory—Banadero or Dos? 🏆🔥

“THE HANDSOME SHOT” — CONTROVERSY STRIKES GAME 1

In a game that had everything—intensity, momentum swings, and pure drama—GPC Parian steals Game 1 from Batang Losnap in a night that will be talked about for a long time.

From the opening tip, both squads went toe-to-toe, trading buckets and locking in defensively. But it was Batang Losnap who seized control in the second half, igniting a run that built a double-digit lead and silenced any thoughts of a comeback. The home crowd was electric, the energy unmatched, and it looked like Game 1 was slipping away from GPC Parian.

But champions don’t panic.

GPC Parian stayed composed in the face of adversity, slowly chipping away at the lead possession by possession. And just when it seemed like time had run out—down 3 with only 2 seconds left—everything changed.

Off the inbound, the ball found Jonas Arcibal… and in one heartbeat, he launched a deep three over a defender.

Bang. Tie game.

And just like that, the court turned into a storm of emotions.

Was the shot released in time? Did the ball leave his hands before the buzzer? With no instant replay system available, confusion and arguments erupted from both sides. Videos from spectators surfaced, but it must be made clear:

South Hoops Ballers Club does NOT allow or acknowledge any video evidence, as there is no official Instant Replay System (IRS) in place. All decisions rely solely on the judgment of the game officials.

After deliberation, the referees made their call:

THE SHOT COUNTS.

A moment now forever remembered as “THE HANDSOME SHOT.”

Batang Losnap, fueled by emotion, strongly protested the ruling and chose not to continue the game despite being given a 5-minute window by officials. Their decision ultimately led to a default finish.

FINAL: GPC Parian takes Game 1.

A game filled with heart, controversy, and a shot that will echo across Calamba basketball for years to come.

SHBC U25 FINALS GAME 1

The stage is finally set as Batang Losnap takes on GPC Parian in Game 1 of the SHBC U25 Finals — a matchup that promises intensity, pride, and pure heart.

This series could truly go either way. On one side, Batang Losnap brings unmatched energy, relentless defensive pressure, and a young, hungry core eager to prove themselves on the biggest stage. On the other side, GPC Parian stands with undeniable talent, experience, and composure built from big-game moments.

At this point, it’s no longer just about skill — it’s about who wants it more.

Who will rise above the pressure and be crowned the SHBC U25 Champion, taking home the grand cash prize and an all-expense-paid trip to Jomalig Island (April 17–20)?

Only time will tell, so stay tuned.

In an official agreement between both sides, Coach Lex Donor of GPC Parian and Coach Jerome Llerin of Batang Losnap, the SHBC has approved a home-and-away format for the finals series:

Game 1 will be played at Batang Losnap’s home court
Game 2 will be held at GPC Parian’s home court
If necessary, Game 3 will take place on a neutral court

This arrangement was mutually agreed upon, with both teams taking responsibility for court preparations, security, and game-day organization, supported by their respective SB officials.

The finals battle is officially underway — let the war for the championship begin.
