For forum users, there's an arguement on which high school batch has the most powerful basketball lineup of all time. Two batches came into my mind. First, San Beda 97 which included Ren-ren Ritualo (DLSU), Jenkins Mesina (UP-SBC), Xavier Nunag (UP), Mike Bravo (UP), Mark Jomalesa (UP), Abelardo Marcos Jr. (UP), Jhal Casio (SBC) - Yes, JV Casio's elder brother, Henry Mabasa (UP) and former Red Cubs coach Britt Reroma (SBC).
Second, to the old-schoolers, this batch :
The San Beda Red Cubs 1983
I guess most of this batch made name in Philippine basketball history. Can you distinguish and name them?
