\"San\u00a0 Newly minted 2011 MDX league champion San Antonio\/Gene’s Barber grabbed the most individual awards in the inter-village caging with MVP Jack Aranda leading the honor roll.<\/p>\n

Aranda won the coveted MVP award after lifting San Antonio to an 87-72 victory in the winner-take-all title game against As Lito\/Chow Queen in the 2011 MDX Amateur Radio Club Inter-Village Friendship League at the Civic Center Basketball Court in Susupe last Sunday.<\/p>\n

Aranda had a team-high 18 points in the finale, scoring baskets when it counted the most, as he nailed 11 markers in San Antonio’s fourth-quarter breakaway. The San Antonio shooting guard was a consistent double-figure scorer in the regular season and totaled 30 points in the quarterfinals and semis. San Antonio topped San Roque\/Morales in the opening round of the playoffs, 82-66, and downed the San Vicente Saints in the Final Four, 80-61.<\/p>\n

A trophy was awarded to Aranda during a brief ceremony after the title game last weekend.<\/p>\n

Also receiving awards were Mythical Team members Pedro Castro and Jaymark De Guzman, Ezra Caro of Chalan Kanoa\/Fong’s Bakery, Travis Eubanks of San Vicente, and Sheen Metran of As Lito\/Chow Queen and Best Coach Danny Bicera of San Antonio. MDX officials Peter Crisostomo and Bong Malasarte led the awarding of trophies to winners of the inter-village league.<\/p>\n

The 2011 MDX caging drew 18 teams, which were divided into two pools. Group A had the Top 4 finishers San Antonio\/Gene’s Barbers, Chalan Kanoa\/Fong’s Bakery, Garapan\/JHEM’s Restaurant, and Susupe\/Armatech. Joining them were Koblerville\/GEC, Chalan Laulau\/AON, Tanapag\/FGC, San Jose CP Repair, and Puerto Rico\/Triskellion.
