Juan Gomez de Liano got tested shortly after arriving in Lithuania.

The Filipino played 6 minutes during his team's 95-70 victory against Labas Gas Prienai at the 7th Citadele King Mindaugas Cup at Alytus Sports and Recreation Center on Thursday (Manila time).

The former University of the Philippines Fighting Maroon managed to grab four rebounds despite going scoreless.

Six of his teammates delivered in double figures led by Kristupas Zemaitis with 17 points as they ran roughshod Labas Gas Prienai.

Gomez de Liano last week became the second Filipino baller to play in Europe after Gilas Women's Jack Animam, who played in Serbia last year.

MANILA, Philippines – President Ferdinand Marcos, Jr. has ordered the creation of an inter-agency task force that would coordinate for the country's hosting of the 2025 FIVB Men's Volleyball World Championship.

The Administrative Order 30, which was released on Tuesday and was signed by Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin for Marcos, directs several government agencies chaired by the Philippine Sports Commission (PSC) to help prepare and organize the 32-nation championship event hosted through the Philippine National Volleyball Federation (PNVF) set for September 12 to 28.

The PSC will be the task force secretariat, and 17 different government bodies — Departments of Tourism, Budget and Management, Education, Trade and Industry, Finance, Foreign Affairs, Health, Information and Communication Technology, Interior and Local Government, Public Works and Highways and Transportation, as well as the Commission on Higher Education, Metro Manila Development Authority, National Intelligence Coordinating Agency, Bureaus of Immigration and Customs and the Presidential Communications Office — would complete the task force.

The funding for the order's implementation “shall be charged against the existing appropriations of the respective agencies, subject to applicable laws, rules and regulations,” according to the AO.

Meanwhile, the PNVF lauded Malacañang's directive through its chief, PNVF president Ramon Suzara. Presidential son Vinny Marcos is also the co-chair of the Local Organizing Committee (LOC) of this prestigious event.

Alas Pilipinas Men, participating in the world championship by virtue of hosting, are grouped in Pool A together with Iran, Egypt and Tunisia.
