PINAGLARUAN ng defending champion San Beda ang University of Perpetual Help System Dalta, 102-56, upang mapalawig ang unbeaten run nito sa anim na laro sa NCAA men’s basketball tournament kahapon sa Filoil Flying V Centre.
Inaasahang mapapalaban nang husto ang Red Lions sa Altas, subalit sadyang nadominahan ng Mendiola-based cagers ang 40-minute match.
Nagtala ang San Beda ng season highs sa points (102) at sa naipasok na three-point attempts (16), at naiposte ang pinamalaking winning margin sa torneo sa 46.
Tinapos naman ng Lyceum of the Philippines University ang five-game winning run ng College of Saint Benilde sa pamamagitan ng 74-71 panalo.
Sa iba pang laro, patuloy sa pagbangon ang Mapua mula sa 0-5 simula makaraang ibasura ang Jose Rizal University, 83-63, para sa ikatlong sunod na panalo.
Kuntento si coach Boyet Fernandez sa ipinakita ng league-leading Red Lions, na nagsilbing magandang warm-up sa kanilang Finals rematch sa Pirates.
“Credit to my boys for this win. They wanted to prove something. We really had a good game against Letran, but they really wanted to prove to themselves that the win against Letran was not a fluke. This gave us a lot of confidence going to the game against LPU on Tuesday, but it’s all my boys. It’s for the boys. We really prepared well for this game to really get this win,” wika ni Fernandez.
Kuminang ang mga senior para sa San Beda, sa pangunguna ni AC Soberano na naitala ang lahat ng kanyang 15 points mula sa 3-point area sa 14 minutong paglalaro, habang gumawa rin si Cameroon’s Donald Tankoua ng 15 points, 6 rebounds at 2 steals.
“Hopefully tuloy-tuloy na rin ‘yung kumpiyansa ni AC because we do need him in the next games to come. Donald stepping up again, but well, it’s really the boys who played well today. Na-mention ko lang si AC at si Donald but everybody stepped up today, so congratulations, my boys,” ani Fernandez.
