UAAP Media</div>MANILA -- Far Eastern University-Diliman regained its winning ways in the UAAP Season 87 Junior High School Basketball Tournament, fending off De La Salle-Zobel 83-79 on Wednesday at the Mall of Asia Arena.Both teams were coming off a 21-day break.For the Baby Tamaraws, the win was a fitting response to their close 76-75 defeat against University of Santo Tomas in their previous assignment. The Junior Archers, meanwhile, absorbed a second straight loss after bowing to University of the East last October 16, 79-70.FEU-Diliman hiked its record to 7-2, boosting its chances of earning a twice-to-beat advantage in the Final 4. As it stands, they have a two-game cushion against the Tiger Cubs, who are at 5-4. The Junior Warriors continue to lead the tournament with a spotless 10-0 record.&quot;Big factor yung mahaba naming pagpapahinga. Sabi namin mga coaches, masanay kayo na dikit ang mga laro, yan ang pinaka-magandang test. Preparation yan papunta ng Final Four,&quot; said Baby Tamaraws head coach Muriel Garcia. &quot;And still, wala pa kami hawak na ticket sa Final Four, kailangan pa namin manalo.&quot;La Salle-Zobel pulled ahead, 78-77, with 2:15 left after back-to-back buckets from Melvin Tailan and Duncan Tan. But CP Miranda was there to respond for the Baby Tamaras, nailing the go-ahead three-pointer for an 80-78 FEU-Diliman lead with 63 seconds to go. Their defense took over from there, as they completed an elimination round sweep of the Junior Archers after having won their first round encounter, 78-72, last September 25.&quot;Commitment yung defense eh. Sinabi namin, iwan mo yung bigs, magconcentrate tayo sa small kasi hindi naman binibigyan yung bigs, dine-decoy lang. &#x27;Yun siguro ang naging mindset nila kaya may crucial blocks nung dulo,&quot; Garcia said.Duke Santos led the Baby Tamaraws with 20 points, two rebounds and two steals, while Miranda finished with 15 points, three rebounds, two assists, and one steal.FEU-Diliman will aim to build on this win when it faces Adamson University on Sunday, November 9, at the Araneta Coliseum.The Junior Archers fell to 4-5, putting them at fifth place. Tailan scored 19 points but shot only 5-of-16 from the field, though he did have eight rebounds and four assists. Vince Magan added 17 points, eight rebounds, and four assists.La Salle-Zobel will look to keep its Final Four hopes alive in their next matchup against National University Nazareth School on Sunday, November 17, at the Filoil EcoOil Center.<div>THE SCORES:</div>FEU-D (83) - Santos 20, Miranda 15, Victoria 13, Lopez 10, Dulin 9, Carino 4, Pasinos 4, Enriquez 3, Pineda 3, Adriano 2, Pingris 0, Lassiter 0.DLSZ (79) - Tailan 19, Magan 17, Apao 17, Centeno 10, Tan 6, Villaruz 5, Llamas 3, Luna 2, Maglipon 0, Purugganan 0.Quarterscores: 26-13, 41-43, 61-64, 83-79.<div></div>
