EIGHT collegiate teams are participating in the 2nd Jimmy Fernandez Cup Basketball Championship which reels off on January 7 at the People’s Astrodome in Dagupan City.
Seeing action this year are Pangasinan Merchant Marine Academy (PAMMA), the defending champion; AIE-College, last year’s runner-up; Colegio de Dagupan (CdD); PIMSAT Colleges; Pangasinan State University (PSU-Lingayen, Pangasinan); University of Eastern Pangasinan (UEP-Binalonan, Pangasinan); University of Luzon (Team B); and University of Pangasinan-PHINMA (Team B).
Vice-Mayor Belen Fernandez will lead the opening ceremonies for the sporting event named after her late father.
The tournament will have a double round-robin with the top two teams advancing to the best-of-three championship games.
Seato Gonomil, league project director, said in case of a three or four-way tie in the top standings after the eliminations, the winner-over-the other rule and/or quotient system will be used in determining the top two contenders for the championship round.–Philamer C. Celia
