The UP Fighting Maroons slay the Ateneo Blue Eagles on Sunday, May 1, halting the defending champion’s 39-game winning streak in the UAAP men’s basketball competition. Full story:
MANILA, Philippines – For the first time in four years, a team took down mighty Ateneo and halted the defending champion’s phenomenal 39-game winning streak.
Diouf helped the Maroons get off to an explosive start to finish with a huge double-double of 18 points and 16 rebounds, while Carl Tamayo also dropped 16 points. “One thing good for me is the team stayed as a team no matter how close the game was, there were ups and downs along the way… we talked about being a team even in times of struggle and we saw that earlier.”
UP will take on No. 3 La Salle at 2 pm, while Ateneo will clash with the fourth-ranked FEU at 6 pm. After a few low-scoring minutes, Spencer then sent the UP crowd into a frenzy with a go-ahead three, before Dave Ildefonso answered right back with a clutch putback layup for the 83-82 lead with 32.4 ticks left.
