Ada Gymnasium.<\/p>\n<p>Palino earned a spot on the elite group after leading Joel to a first place finish in the double-round robin elimination and the championship win against Jonah. The Kagman High School standout helped Joel get a 6-2 record in the regular season and prevail in a tiebreak for first place versus Jonah. In the playoffs, Palino scored 28 points to power Joel to an 88-78 semis victory against Nahum, while in the finals, he tallied 34 in leading his team to a come-from-behind 81-78 triumph over Jonah.<\/p>\n<p>The Joel quarterback and the nine other players were recognized during the league\u2019s awards ceremony last Saturday after the title match in the youth division.

Cabanas, who recorded a game-high 22 points in the finals, was also the consistent top scorer for Jeremiah in the regular season where his team finished third with its 5-2 record behind Gideon (5-2\/won the tiebreak) and Samuel (6-1).<\/p>\n<p>One more Ezekiel player\u2014Isagani Cortez\u2014made it to the mythical team, which also has Isaiah\u2019s Mark Cando, Joshua\u2019s Mark Puno and Jaymark Paclibar, Caleb\u2019s Angelo Hernaez, Daniel\u2019s Marlo Ibanez, Gideon\u2019s Rey Darag,  and Ezekiel\u2019s Don Teregeyo and Dan Toribio as members.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Joel\u2019s key player Andrew Palino and Jeremiah\u2019s Michael Cabanas topped the list of mythical team&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":29,"featured_media":234338,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[145,12049,7004,4038],"class_list":["post-234337","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sports","tag-ada-gymnasium","tag-gen-cup","tag-marlo-ibanez","tag-michael-cabanas"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/234337","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/29"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=234337"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/234337\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/234338"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=234337"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=234337"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=234337"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
