JOHN MARC AGUSTIN had a career-high 25 points to lift Adamson
University to a 73-65 victory over National University on Sunday in
the 71st University Athletic Association of the Philippines men’s
basketball tournament at the Philsports Arena.
The 6-foot-4 Agustin, son of former PBA star Ato
Agustin, also had five rebounds and a steal as the Soaring Falcons
ended their two-game skid.
“Maganda ang laro ni Marc ngayon. First time
ko siya nakitang maglaro ng ganyan. Sana magtuluy-tuloy ang
magandang laro ng mga bata,” said Adamson coach Leo Austria.
Jan Colina added 11 points and four rebounds
while Michael Galinato and Alex Nuyles chipped in nine and seven
markers, respectively for Adamson.
“We are hoping that this win will boost their
confidence in our next games. Lahat ng teams pantay-pantay ang level
ng paglalaro kaya mas matindi ang kumpetisyon ngayon,” added
Austria.
Edwin Asoro finished with 22 points and 12
rebounds for the Bulldogs, who remained winless after three outings.
Jonathan Jahnke only made eight points while
Chris dela Cruz and Jewel Ponferrada contributed seven apiece.
