The white and gold Nike Lebron model, donated by La Salle alumni association official Edwin Reyes, had a starting bid of P5,000 and eventually went to Camilla Saguin, who posted the highest bid of P15,100. Items like DLSU basketball, vollyball jerseys from La Salle lady spikers and even from non-La Sallians have been auctioned off by DLSU Sports through its social media accounts, Facebook and Twitter, to help raise funds for La Salle alumni and table tennis Olympian Ian Larriba. A used basketball from the Green Archers’ team was won by Vicente Sy, who posted the highest bid of P3,500. Administrators of DLSU Sports promised that more items will be put on auction to help Larriba for her medical treatment. The Philippine Sports Commission had initially funded Larriba’s hospital bills and more private entities like the La Salle groups are putting more efforts to pitch in.
