With a total of seven teams that competed, last Saturday’s 3-on-3 basketball tournament organized by the Air Force Civic Action Team 07-03 was a real fun.
But the event was not just for the sake of having a tournament.
It was held for the purpose of building friendship and community relations.
The seven teams that participated were Crusaders, Neco Plaza, Redeemers, Skyline, CAT 2, CAT 1 and PMA.
The Crusaders, composed of Joey Martin, Andrew Carpenter, Elias Rivera and Andy Johnson, emerged champions by beating Neco Plaza in the finals.
Second placer Neco Plaza defeated third placer PMA, 17-10, in the semifinals.
Before that, the Crusaders opened up its campaign with a 12-10 victory over the Redeemers, 13-3 over Skyline and 12-4 over PMA in the winner’s bracket on the way to the finals.
Neco Plaza won over the Redeemers, 21-13 over CAT 1, 13-11 over Skyline and 17-10 over PMA in the loser’s bracket on the way to the finals.
