UAAP: Topex Robinson hopes league reconsiders Wello Lingolingo's 3-game suspension
La Salle coach Topex Robinson is appealing for a reduced suspension for UE player Wello Lingolingo, who caused an injury to La Salle's Kean Baclaan.
Lingolingo's unsportsmanlike foul resulted in Baclaan suffering an MCL injury, ruling him out for the remainder of the season.
Lingolingo was initially suspended for three games, and Robinson believes this is too harsh.
Both Robinson and Baclaan expressed sympathy for Lingolingo, with Baclaan reportedly feeling sorry that Lingolingo had to miss games.
Robinson hopes the UAAP will reconsider the suspension, citing that Lingolingo is a good player and the accident could happen to anyone.
