00:00 We are here to coach Pito Valenzo. Coach Pito, congratulations.

00:04 What are your feelings with the victory? What can you say about the campaign you just won?

00:10 First of all, thank you to the media people, the press.

00:18 I won't go to you, I'll talk to you after the game.

00:23 Anyway, it's a daunting season for us. I won two games.

00:31 I take full responsibility. I disappoint the community, the UFC community.

00:40 I apologize to them. But for sure, we'll be better next year.

00:47 With our recruits, they're here. My only regret is, coming to the season,

00:56 I have a son who didn't tell the truth. When it came to the end, we were left behind.

01:04 And these 15 players who were left behind, I have nothing to say to them.

01:13 They're doing everything to win the UST, to win the team.

01:20 But we felt sure. It's all about me. I take full responsibility.

01:27 Because there's no preparation, and there are things that I can't control.

01:40 My only regret is, I have a son who was left behind.

01:46 That's the only thing that's bothering me. He didn't tell the truth.

01:51 For transparency, can you say who those people are?

01:55 No, I don't want to say anything. You know that. We only have 16 players.

02:00 Only 15 played for us. You know who they are.

02:04 I don't want to say anything. Just to be fair with him. He didn't prepare for me.

02:12 That's why my boys are pitiful. But we fought. We fought hard.

02:18 For sure, we'll be better next year. With our recruits and more preparation.

02:28 Coach, going back to the game. You guys held an 11 point lead in the 4th quarter.

02:34 And then, after you started to make a run, what can you say about the composure of the Grounding Tigers?

02:38 Especially in the final minutes of the game.

02:40 Even though both teams struggled, they still kept their composure until the final buzzer.

02:44 Your thoughts on their ending?

02:46 From the start, we were a bit aggressive. We were composed all throughout the game.

02:53 And then in the endgame, of course, there's a team that will make a run.

02:59 But I'll give it to the players. Their composure, their hope, and then,

03:06 maybe, enough is enough. We're already down to lose.

03:10 Maybe this is the time that we can get our second win for the season.

03:17 At least, not at least, it's still a bad season. Two wins in 14 games.

03:24 We can't compare to last year. We're here fighting.

03:31 I just take full responsibility for everything that happened.

03:37 The losses and everything. The disappointment and everything.

03:40 So, community, I'm sorry. My fans, I love you all.

03:47 That's all. We'll leave it to you.

03:50 Okay, we have here Christian Manaytay and next, Panginyan Christian.

03:55 You had 12.9 pounds maximum.

03:59 So, what can you say about the victory you gave to Eaglets after the season?

04:04 Well, I can say that Eaglets and all of our organizations deserve it.

04:10 Because we have a very rough season right now.

04:14 So, we're trying to find a way to win.

04:18 And of course, we're happy that we won today.

04:21 And we're also thankful to our supporters, especially Eaglets.

04:27 They're the ones who supported us and gave us hope.

04:30 They're the ones who always give us a positive outlook.

04:34 And we're having a hard time.

04:36 And to mix that, 5 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals.

04:40 So, what can you say about the fact that you finished the season on a high note?

04:46 No matter how you're going to do it for next season,

04:50 I'm so grateful that you still believe in us.

04:55 From everybody, despite our record, you still believe in us.

05:00 And I'm also thankful that the band that has no BB Towns is still there.

05:08 From the get-go of the season, the culture that we're building,

05:13 the ones that we do with everybody, they're the ones who are giving us a part.

05:17 Even though we're lacking in a lot of things,

05:21 we're not going to stop until we improve.

05:26 We're not going to stop until we improve.
