Mighty Red Lions Rip Green Archers
Reigning NCAA champion San Beda withstood a furious fightback by La Salle to hack out a 69-63 win.
The Red Lions led by as much as 17 points and looked well on their way to an easy win after an Anjo Caram triple had them ahead, 61-46, with only 2:27 left.
Not going down without a fight, the Green Archers started hitting their shots and were able to force errors on the other end.
Almond Vosotros sank a trey that pulled La Salle to within four, 63-67, with 16.6 seconds remaining.
San Beda held on after Caram’s two free throws as La Salle just had little time left to complete its comeback.
“I guess we really tried to outwork them and the only way we could hurdle them it through our defense,” said San Beda coach Ronnie Magsanoc.
CONGRATULATIONS!
