UNDEFEATED Gilas Pilipinas girls youth team bolstered its Division A promotion bid with an outright semifinals berth in the 2022 FIBA U16 Women’s Asian Champion in Amman, Jordan.
The Filipina teens completed a sweep of Pool A highlighted by a 94-65 win against Samoa over the weekend to advance straight to the Final Four of the Division B tilt.
Naomi Panganiban and Princess Villarin threw in help for the wards of coach Brian Rosario and Julie Amos. Already in the semis, Gilas will enjoy a one-day breather as second and third-seeded teams scramble for the last two Final Four tickets. A championship by the Nationals in Division B would catapult them to the elite Division A featuring Australia, Japan, South Korea, New Zealand and India.
