They also buckled down on defense and held the Golden Stags to only eight points in the frame.It was Perpetual Help’s fifth straight win in the NCAA Season 94 men’s basketball tournament, hiking their record to 10-5 with still three games left on their schedule.“It shows a lot of character on my players. It boils down to proper execution of our plays,” said Perpetual Help coach Frankie Lim. “We were just lucky to come back. Down by five points in the last minute, and we’re just lucky. Sometimes, it’s better to be lucky than good,” he added.MVP-frontrunner Prince Eze played all 45 minutes and finished with 25 points, 23 rebounds, and four blocks, while Coronel had 15 points, 6 rebounds, and 5 assists. Jelo Razon (13 points) and Charcos (12 points, 7 assists) also finished in double-digits for the Altas.<ul class="op-related-articles">	<li><a href="https://sports.abs-cbn.com/ncaa/news/2018/10/04/lsgh-denies-san-beda-s-entry-ncaa-94-final-four-47808">READ: LSGH denies San Beda&#x27;s entry into NCAA 94 Final 4</a></li></ul>The Golden Stags appeared headed for an upset when they surged to a 69-64 lead with 1:49 to play, thanks to a triple by Allyn Bulanadi and a jumper by Alvin Capobres.But with 1:10 to go, Razon drove hard for a bucket to cut the deficit to three points. Perpetual got a stop in their next possession, which also saw Capobres go down due to cramps. Charcos was quick to take advantage of the 4-on-5 situation, and scored on a lay-up. He was fouled by Bulanadi on the same possession, and the guard completed the and-1 play for a 69-all deadlock.Michael Calisaan misfired on a three-pointer with 18 seconds left, giving Perpetual Help a chance to win in regulation. Unfortunately for the Altas, Charcos bricked a lay-up as time expired.There was no stopping the Altas in overtime, however. Triples by Coronel and Peralta sparked a 12-2 exchange, putting them on top 81-71 with 1:17 to play. The Stags last threatened when Bulanadi nailed a three-pointer with a minute to go, then forced a turnover on the inbound.But RK Ilagan missed a hurried triple, and on the other end, JM Calma was called for an unsportsmanlike foul. That led to a technical for San Sebastian coach Egay Macaraya -- his second of the game, thus causing his ejection.The Altas made the most of the free throws, with Peralta nailing two shots and Coronel making the technical charity. Perpetual Help cruised to victory from there.Still, Lim commended their foes for a battle well fought. “San Sebastian is a tough team to beat,” he said. “May mga materyales. They’re quite strong.”Capobres led the Stags with 18 points, while Ilagan and Bulanadi each contributed 16 markers. However, San Sebastian made only 31.25% of their shots under pressure from Perpetual Help’s defense, and gave up a whopping 30 free throws to the Altas.San Sebastian dropped to 4-11 in the season. <div>The scores:</div>PERPETUAL 85 – Eze 25, Coronel 15, Razon 13, Charcos 12, Aurin 9, Peralta 9, Mangalino 2, Cuevas 0SAN SEBASTIAN 77 – Capobres 18, Ilagan 16, Bulanadi 16, Calisaan 8, Valdez 8, Calma 4, Baytan 3, Sumoda 2, Villapando 2, Dela Cruz 0, Desoyo 0, Isidro 0, Are 0, Arciaga 0QUARTER SCORES: 17-9, 30-21, 49-43, 69-69, 85-77 (OT)For more sports coverage, visit the <a href="http://sports.abs-cbn.com">ABS-CBN Sports website</a>.
