KOGA

Missing four key players heading into their matchup against Valenzuela-Carga Backload Solutions, Batangas-Tanduay needed someone to take the load.

Fortunately, Ryusei Koga is always ready to take advantage of such situations, leading the Athletics to a 77-66 conquest of the home team Classic in the 2019-20 Chooks-to-Go MPBL Lakan Season at the Bahayang Pag-Asa Gym in Imus City, Cavite Saturday.

The San Beda University product posted 13 points, seven rebounds, seven assists, three steals, and a block. He was also a game-high plus-17 when on the floor.

“The last few games medyo hindi ako consistent, ngayon inayos ko yung sarili ko, I have to be consistent, I have to be tough going to the playoffs,” said the 5-foot-9 playmaker.

Batangas missed Rey Suerte and Jaydee Tungcab due to Gilas duties while Jeff Viernes had to attend to his coaching duties in Malaysia. Also not in attendance was Jayson Grimal
