This was the painful statement of Jon Jon Tabique, point guard of the University of the Philippines Fighting Maroons. He had a budding basketball career, helping the state university rebuild into a contender in the UAAP. Then, in October of last year, Tabique was shocked to find out he had lymphoma.


Cancer.

No prize went to either protagonists, but to ailing UP point guard Jon Tabique who is battling cancer of the lymph nodes, that match may spark as his life-saver.
