You play hard, you play the right way. You cannot disrespect your opponent. We played well, we played defense, we played hard, and that&#x27;s the result of that,&quot; said FEU assistant coach Gabby Severino on what worked for them.Christer Catarong showed up for the Kings with 17 points and nine rebounds, and Arvie Jay Poyos displayed an all-around game of 15 markers, five boards, and eight assists, but FEU&#x27;s firepower was just too much for the VisMin regional champions.The second play-in game between the two squads will be set for 2 PM tomorrow at the same San Juan venue.
