Ateneo de Manila University finally earned its first victory in the 2023 Filoil EcoOil Preseason Cup with a resounding 77-52 rout of Centro Escolar University on Monday, June 5. ManilaBulletin
Reeling after five straight defeats to commence their campaign, the Blue Eagles left no stones unturned at Filoil EcoOil Centre in San Juan as they dominated the Scorpions in all fronts.
CEU exited with eight losses in a row after a tourney-opening win, with Daniel Marcelo top-scoring in its swansong with 18 points. "Miggy really gave us a lift, but it's typical of us and it really showed our lack of maturity which is obvious that we need to work on," said coach Charles Tiu. Another team that boosted its bid for the Group I quarterfinals is Colegio de San Juan de Letran which fought back from 16 points down to stun Mapua University, 70-67.
The three-peat NCAA champions can get the top-seed for the next round with a win against current top seed University of Perpetual Help on Friday. On the other hand, the 5-3 Cardinals need to triumph over Jose Rizal University on Tuesday to claim a playoff berth.
