}} Elvin Jake J. Pascual (born November 11, 1988) is a Filipino professional basketball player who currently plays for the Star Hotshots of the Philippine Basketball Association. He was taken 8th overall by Barako Bull in the 2014 PBA draft.〔http://pba.inquirer.net/48545/2014-pba-draft-results〕 Jake Pascual on the contrary, is not related to teammate Ronald Pascual.〔http://www.interaksyon.com/interaktv/bigger-younger-star-hotshots-to-implement-run-and-gun-play-under-new-coach-jason-webb〕 ==Amateur career== Pascual initially attended his high school education at St. Rose Catholic School in Paniqui, Tarlac until 2004, when his brother brought him to Manila and encouraged him to apply for a basketball scholarship with Philippine Christian University. On his own will, he personally came to PCU with the intent to join its seniors basketball team, as he was, at that time, a graduating high school student. Yet, he was advised by Bong Sales, then head coach of the PCU Baby Dolphins, to repeat his third year of high school to gain experience and be familiar with Manila basketball. Furthermore, he was then instructed to officially drop out from his fourth year high school studies in St. Rose Catholic School in Tarlac, and to bring with him his second year high school report card to officially enrol as a third year high school student at PCU. Mr. Sales facilitated his enrolment in PCU High School, enabling him to serve a one-year residency and play for a year with the Baby Dolphins. In his only playing year at PCU, he was awarded both NCAA Juniors Rookie of the Year and Most Valuable Player of the NCAA Season 82, however, both awards were returned after it was found out that PCU High School falsified his documents to extend his high school eligibility, which resulted to the school's suspension from the NCAA that following season.〔http://www.inboundpass.com/2007/06/20/highlights-of-the-pcu-investigation/〕 After he graduated at PCU, he transferred to San Beda College where he was supposed to play out his rookie season for the Red Lions in 2008, but the NCAA Management Committee (ManCom) decided to ban him due to the same eligibility issue he was involved in two years before.〔http://www.inboundpass.com/2008/06/20/ncaa-bans-san-bedas-pascual/〕 A week after, he was cleared to play for NCAA Season 84 by the league after an appeal by then-San Beda president Fr. Mateo De Jesus to the NCAA Policy Board, saying he did not knowingly violate league rules on misrepresentation.〔http://sports.inquirer.net/breakingnews/breakingnews/view/20080624-144560/NCAA-Pascual-tries-to-prove-he-deserves-San-Beda-slot〕 At San Beda, he became a member of multiple Red Lions championship teams of 2008, 2010, 2011 and 2012. He was also awarded as Most Improved Player in 2009.〔http://bleachersbrew.blogspot.com/2009/10/ncaa-season-85-awardees.html〕 He was also a Gilas Cadet, and was invited to the Sinag Pilipinas national team pool that competed in the 2013 SEA Games.〔http://sports.tempo.com.ph/2013/12/27th-southeast-asian-games-list-of-rp-medalists/〕〔http://www.gmanetwork.com/news/story/254578/sports/basketball/next-in-line-assembling-the-gilas-2-cadet-squad〕 While in the amateur ranks, he played for the NLEX until its last season in the PBA Developmental League. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jake Pascual」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
