The Basketball Team of Barangay Mudiit emerged as Champions in the Finals of the Dolores Town Festival Basketball League for 2012 as they defeated the team from Zone 3 Centro 94 – 81.

Centro was actually leading after the 1st quarter 22 – 15 thanks to their rebounding and some missed shots from Mudiit. But in the 2nd quarter, number 8 player Ariota took charge of the offense and finished the half 45-44 behind his efficient mid court jumpers. In the 3rd quarter, number 8 player Sevilla, and number 17 player Sevilla lead the suffocating defense for Mudiit that lead to turnovers after turnovers for Centro and fastbreak points for Mudiit. They finished the 3rd quarter with a 13 point lead 73 – 60.

Centro tried to fight back and in fact managed to cut the lead to 2 with 7 minutes left in regulation. But Mudiit answered with back to back 3 pointers from number 17 and number 16 Briosos and tightened their defense that again lead to multiple turnovers for Centro which sealed the deal for Mudiit.

As icing on the cake, Mudiit managed to win the championship unbeaten going 4-0 in the knockout stages.

Congratulations to Team Mudiit, 2012 Dolores Basketball League Champions!
