Knights Tame Red Lions
San Beda played as if the title was on the line, but it was Letran which looked every inch like a champion last night.
Letran pulled off a rousing 74-67 victory over defending champion San Beda to regain the solo lead after the first round of the NCAA men’s basketball tournament before a huge crowd at MOA Arena.
Raymond Almazan and Reneford Ruaya scored most of the Knights’ fourth-quarter points as Letran nailed its eighth win in nine games.
“There was a challenge, and I think the boys wanted to prove something,” said Letran coach Caloy Garcia.
The Red Lions fell to 7-2.
In junior's match-up, San Beda Red Cubs remained unblemish with 9-0 win-loss record in expense of Letran Squires, 100-86.

It was definitely a sorry loss for the red lions. Letran was hungry for the win against San Beda. The Lions will have to do a better job next time. The coach will have to do a better rotation for the players...something that Letran will be forced to create mismatches.
