Engineers acquire Lithuanian center, send Modina to free agency

The DLSU IE-98 Engineers have found another true center.

Vytautas Pirantas (6'11) was presented to the media today, finally ending speculations on the future of Lou Querubin Modina with the team."It was a tough decision to send Lou (to free agency). We had plans for him after he was drafted but that soon changed after we got promoted to Div III. We wish him all the best" said manager fpanzer10 during the short press conference.

Modina's heart and hustle for the ball is proven, given his 6'6 frame. He posted career averages of 6.5 ppg and 5.5 rpg in almost 16 minutes of action per game.

Pirantas, meanwhile, expressed his excitement to play for the team. "I have yet to get used to the very warm (Philippine) weather, but I was told that the people here are great and easy to get along. I look forward to meeting the team and learn from the other imports about the local culture."

His arrival was timely, as starting center Luduvico Estil was sidelined earlier this week with an injury while playing against the SanMigSuperMixers. Coach Franco Zarate has yet to announce his starting lineup, but it is rumored the former MVP will come off the bench. This move also boosted the front court height of the Engineers, with big men Hakki Cav, Mark Kriegshauser and a returning Luduvico Estil in the lineup.

Watch Vytautas Pirantas play his first game Saturday, 5:30pm at the Velasco Hall against heavily favored GreenLeprechaun Saturday, 07 June 2014.

I hope so, I'm placing myself as a +28 underdog sa odds. Taas ng ranking mo kasi, lakas pa ng players mo. LOL

sipag tlaga ni fpanzer magsulat ng article, bigyan ng jacket :D

Hehe, thanks man. Priority now is to survive Div III para humaba ang thread. Malalakas na mga kalaban ko hanggang dulo, and Im 3 games behind 5th place. Im bracing for a tough relegation series.

GreenLeprechaun wins against DLSU IE-98, 88-71

Iturren shoots more than half the teams shot attempts

A strong inside game by GreenLeprechaun proved to be too much against the Engineers.

Napoleon Amarille scored 24 points to lead his team against DLSU IE-98, and the Engineers simply had no answer against the tandem of Reynante Porter and Amarille.

Alvaro Iturren led DLSU IE-98 with 39 points and 6 rebounds, but shot just 36% from the field. "I think we didn't come out to compete tonight, and me taking more than 40 shots tells you we didn't rotate the ball well enough" said Iturren.

Iturren tried to stay away from questions related to Lou Modina's move to the free agency market. "Lou was one of those whom I'm closest to in the team, so it really hurts to see someone like that get moved to free agency."

An insider privy to front office movements mentioned that Alvaro felt really bad after Modina's announcement, and thought of being traded to another team.

"I won't answer questions related to Modina and his free agency, we can talk about what happened during the game instead" said Iturren, when asked for his comment on the matter.

DLSU IE - 98 - 71: Iturren - 39, Montano - 12, Kriegshauser - 5, Cav - 5, Quilao - 4, Velez - 4, Lea - 2, Estil - 0, Pirantas - 0, Jesus - 0

GreenLeprechaun - 88: Amarille - 24, Guidi - 18, Porter - 17, Zhonyuan - 8, Abuksis - 7, Zarembski - 6, Xuankang - 4, Rosado - 4, Norona - 0, Cordova - 0

Quarterscores: 30-17, 53-28, 67 - 50, 88-71
