THE University of the Philippines repelled De La Salle University’s fiery comeback attempt in the fourth, 67-64, to move a win away from sweeping the first round of the UAAP Season 86 Men’s Basketball Tournament on Wednesday, Oct. 18, 2023 at the SM Mall of Asia Arena.UP led by 11 in the fourth, but La Salle kept coming, eventually trimming the deficit to one, 65-64, with 15.5 seconds left in the game.

“For the team, every game we win whether we’re up big or not, we always take that as a learning experience especially since our current team is a mix of seniors and young guys,” said UP head coach Goldwin Monteverde.It was a game of runs that saw the Green Archers waste a 47-38 halftime lead and trail 50-59 after a nightmare third canto. La Salle struggled to find the bucket during that stretch going just 1-of-21 from the field.
