Calisaan shocked by ejection, rues missed chance to play on home floor
Michael Calisaan was in disbelief after he got ejected late in the third quarter of San Sebastian’s 75-73 win over EAC on Friday.
“I don’t know,” said Calissan, struggling to explain what led him to hit the showers early.
Calisaan was slapped with two unsportsmanlike fouls while playing defense on Sidney Onwubere, sending him out of the game with 1:14 left in the period.
The 22-year-old forward argued that he didn’t do anything wrong with his defense.
“I know for myself it’s not an unsportsmanlike foul. I wasn’t going for the face or the head. Even if you review the tapes, I only hit him in the elbow. I was going for the ball, but he double-pumped and that’s the reason why (Onwubere) got hit in the arm.”
