AIRspeed TEAM
AIRSPEED TEAM

AIRspeed is the team of Adan I. Rosete (AIR). Founded in 1998, the Airspeed is one of the ABA's most famous and successful franchises in the league.

1997-2003: Frustrations

In that time, the Rosete brothers, and the developing skills and power of the young bloods (Tek Noguera, DC Noguera, PJ Rosete, and Chris Escritor) were not able to reach the ABA finals. All the efforts, determination and sacrifices of the Airspeed were not enough to pursuit a championship.

'''2004-2006: Rest Rest Rest!

2007: Preparing for “The Return”

2008 - 2010: Dynamic Duo (Necesito and Camarillo)''' During the 2008 off-season the Airspeed got the power of John Necesito and the quickness of Jomar Camarillo. Now the Airspeed can produce enough speed to be a championship team. The 2008 Airspeed got into the finals for the first time in the franchise history and faced the powerhouse Eskina Ram and the Twin Towers (Kyle Neypes and Vinluan). Unfortunately Eskina Ram got the title in that year with a series of 2-0.

In 2009, again the Dynamic Duo and the Airspeed made it to the finals after beating Asea in a knock out game. Eskina Ram captured the title for the 3rd straight season.

In year 2010, Roy Constantino, Ed Costales and Ronnie Bembo helped the Airspeed to be unbeatable in the Elimination Round and climb into the finals. Asea beat the Eskina Ram the defending champions in a decisive game to face the Airspeed. The Airspeed made a good defense by making a man to man defense within the whole game and finish with a tremendous lead that causes to its first ever ABA championship.

2011: From ZERO to HERO (History was about to be born)

In 2011 ABA, only 5 teams were participating in the tournament. John Necesito was out for the season because of knee injury. In the Elimination Round the Airspeed was the in number 5 in the league after a 0-4 win-loss record. But that time, the rules were changed and no team will be eliminated after 4 games. The team on number 1 spot will be sitting in the finals and wait for the battle of the other 4 teams. Airspeed was the underdog, and no one was expecting that the Airspeed will have the chance in playing for the finals. In the first round of the playoffs, the Airspeed team handled their first win of the season against the Eskina Ram. In the second round, a close game between Airspeed and Vanguard with Kyle Neypes was occurred. And after the game, the Airspeed got their second win and headed into the finals for the fourth straight season. The top team, the Asea was hungry for a title and angry to have revenge against the Airspeed which they experienced the commanding lead by the Airspeed in the previous finals’ game from last season. After the first half of the 2011 ABA finals, the Asea got the confidence that they will beat the Airspeed after leading by 3 points. The Asea still got the lead when heading in the fourth quarter. Roy Constantino, Jomar Camarillo and PJ Rosete turned things differently when the final buzzer was about to come. They won the game with a lead of 5 points. And the whole crowd was shocked after a winless Airspeed in the elimination round got the championship trophy once again. In the history of ABA, no team that ranked as the last in the league had the chance to capture a championship with a 0-4 record in the elimination round. The 2011 Airspeed team did a history without their superstar center, John Necesito.

2012: AS is in sleep mode

After Dennis Travis agreed to play for the Airspeed, he also agreed to play for the Tik. What is that? Two teams at the same time? It can’t be. So the Airspeed Management decided not to participate. The whole Airspeed Management including Adan I. Rosete was embarrassed with that situation. The Airspeed felt like they were disrespected after that “Travis to Airspeed to Tik” news. Airspeed was known for its own pride and glory.
