  1. When I heard about the exhibition match between the Guam and the P.I., I thought to myself, “Not another slaughter!” 94-66 is nothing to shout about unless you’re a member of the P.I. team. While we’re at it, let’s match the varsity teams against the jv teams in interscholastic sports just to make the games more exciting.
