Adamson University got a crucial win to boost its hopes of clinching a Final Four spot.
The Soaring Falcons defeated Far Eastern University, 63-54, in the UAAP Season 86 Men’s Basketball Tournament on Sunday at the Araneta Coliseum in Quezon City.
The San Marcelino-based squad opened the game by scoring 11 unanswered points, holding FEU scoreless for the first seven minutes of the contest. Adamson went on to lead by 19, 56-37, with under a minute left in the third quarter, but FEU did not give up just yet. The Tamaraws managed to get as close as six, 60-54, late in the fourth after AdU did not score a field goal until there were just 51.8 seconds left, but that was the closest that they got in the final quarter as they failed to bank on their buzzer-beating win against Ateneo de Manila University last week.
