Filipino 100-point scorers

FOR the record, there have been seven 100 points-or-more performances by a Filipino basketball player. However, only three found its way to Wikipedia’s “List of basketball players who have scored 100 points in a single game” around the world.
Those officially documented were the following:

1. Luis (Lou) Salvador’s 116 points in the Philippines’ gold medal-winning game against China during the 1923 Far Eastern Games in Osaka, Japan, said to be the harbinger of the Asian Games yet featured only three countries – Japan, China and the Philippines – at the time.

Note that the 30-second shot clock was not yet in existence and neither was the three-point shot. A product of Jose Rizal College, the prolific and well-conditioned Salvador unbelievably made most of his shots from midcourt during his historic game against the Chinese, the highest output ever for an official international tournament (as distinguished from a local/foreign league competition).

According to the Leyte-born Salvador, he had practiced with a medicine ball daily for a whole year at the YMCA compound before registering the mind-boggling 116-point feat.

Salvador said that he used to throw the medicine ball continuously to accustom himself. And when the time came for him to make the attempt with the actual ball, everything was easy.

Salvador also was a movie/stage producer and was known to local showbusiness as the “Master Showman” and father to a dozen actors and actresses. Legend has it that he sired 58 children during his earthly existence.

He lived with 25 wives and had 14 of them under one roof at one time. Among his children were Leroy Salvador, Alona Alegre, Phillip (Ipe) Salvador and future Philippine Basketball Association professional Roberto (Jumbo) Salvador.

2. Jeron Teng’s 104 points during Xavier School’s 164-74 blasting of Grace Christian College in a Metro Manila Tiong Lian Basketball Association (MMTLBA) high school game on January 5, 2011.

Then a 16-year-old, HS junior, Teng completed his second year of varsity eligibility with the De La Salle Green Archers with title finishes in the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) and Philippine Collegiate Champions League (PCCL) and Finals MVP honors in both tournaments.

3. Clark Quijano’s 120 points during AMA Computer University’s 166-85 shellacking of Lord’s Grace Christian School in a 7th Mariano Bondoc Cup high school tournament on October 20, 2013.

Quijano now owns the individual record for the most points in a high school game in Philippine basketball history.
The other four 100-point feats by a Filipino baller, including three from a Cebu collegiate league, have yet to be documented by Wikipedia for some reasons.
