LEAGUE-leader University of the East eyes its fifth
straight win when it faces University of the Philippines in the main
game of the 70th University Athletic Association of the Philippines
men’s basketball tournament at the Ninoy Aquino Stadium.
The Red Warriors battle the
Fighting Maroons at 4 p.m.
UE hopes to keep its winning run
after demolishing De La Salle, 96-76, on July 22. In that game, Joel
Canizares scored 15 points on top of 7 rebounds while Mark Fampulme
chipped in 11 points and 4 rebounds.
UP, on the other hand, seeks to
barge into the win column. The Fighting Maroons remained winless
after four outings, their last setback coming from defending
champion University of Santo Tomas, 68-76, on July 21.
Playing at 2 p.m. are the
National University Bulldogs and the Adamson University Falcons.
The Bulldogs are in solo fifth
with a 2-3 win-loss record. They lost to the Tigers, 72-83, last
Thursday.
The Falcons, who bowed to the Far
Eastern University Tamaraws, 49-54, on July 22, are also winless
after four games.
