Career
He was a formidable guard who earned the moniker "Stonewall" from legendary sportscaster Willie Hernandez. He sparked San Beda to the National Collegiate Athletic Association championships in 1951-1952 and the National Open tournament, also in 1952. Lim, a two-time Olympian, played on two Asian Games gold medal teams in 1954 and 1958.
He saw action for the Philippine selection that finished ninth at the 1959 International Basketball Federation World Championship in Chile.
A hard-nosed guard, Lim led San Beda to back-to-back National Collegiate Athletic Association titles as a collegian. After hanging up his sneakers, Lim went on to become a successful businessman, chairman of the Makati Stock Exchange, and since 1995, chairman emeritus of the Philippine Stock Exchange.
