Alfonso Tan&#x27;s attempt to send the game to overtime was contested by FEU big man Pat Pasinos as time expired.“This is the very essence of grassroots,” said Baby Tams head coach Mark Isip, an ex-pro and former Tamraw. “We have a player as young as 12 and as old as 16.“If we could put in the good habits and the discipline at a young age, ang laking bagay nito. This is a good stage for them to showcase and develop their skills,” he added.Ateneo was down 61-52 midway through the final frame before making a spirited rally pushed by the packed house at Moro.Coco Santos, Aiori Aquino, Renzo Gatmaitan, and Molina all caught fire, with Molina’s corner triple with less than 20 seconds left, cutting the lead down to one, 71-72.A steal by Tan in the next possession led to two freebies for the 16-year-old guard.However, he split his charities, leading to Pascual’s heroics.Pascual ended up with 13 points, eight rebounds, and five steals while Mark Dulin chipped in 12 points, leading FEU-D to a 4-0 record in this demonstration event.Santos paced 0-3 Ateneo with 14 points while Zane Kallos added 12 points and nine rebounds.Meanwhile, NU-Nazareth got a 31-point, 8-rebound performance from Shaun Lucindo in their tough win over the Tiger Cubs.Chester Tulabut and Mot Matias provided the support with the former adding 21 points while the latter tallying 11 points and 10 assists.UST’s Lorenzo Cinco’s 29-point effort went for naught as they fell to an even 2-2 slate for solo fourth.FEU-Diliman and NU-Nazareth will face off on Wednesday at the Amoranto Sports Center.In the opening game of the day, University of the East romped past Adamson, 80-35, to pick up its first win in three outings.Jared Ferreros led UE with 15 points while Mav Mesina and Mhico Abellar got 12 points apiece.Adamson remained winless in four games.<div>The Scores:</div>First Game:UE 80 - Ferreros 15, Mesina 12, Abellar 12, Garcia 8, Bungar 8, Roquid 7, Dalosa 6, Oraa 5, Bual 3, Cadorna 2, Aguas 2, Dahino 0.ADU 35 - Urbina 10, Barlacto 5, Sambeli 4, Borbon 4, Velasco 4, Liwanag 3, Santiago 3, Cruz 2, Pantia 0, Ching 0, Fernandez 0, Hall 0.Quarterscores: 32-8, 49-16, 69-24, 80-35.Second Game:NUNS 87 - Lucido 31, Tulabut 21, Matias 11, Celiz 7, Callueng 4, Sison 3, Vitug 2, Tolentino 2, Sundiang 2, Mejia 2, Quinto 1, Enguio 0, Tacneng 0.UST 82 - Cinco 29, Canabero 19, Bohol 8, Dela Cruz 8, Sy 5, Bathan 4, Castro 3, De Castro 2, Guerrero 2, Knowls 2, Sangki 0.Quarterscores: 21-20, 45-41, 64-59, 87-82.Third Game:FEU-D 74 - Pascual 13, Dulin 12, Cagurungan 9, Dagcutan 8, Pasinos 8, Gutierrez 6, Hugano 5, Lopez 4, Carino 4, Chua 3, Mirando 2, Dongrin 0.Ateneo 72 - Santos 14, Kallos 12, Aquino 10, Gatmaitan 9, Molina 9, Magpoc 7, Lanot 3, De Ocampo 0, Enrique 0, Bautista 0, Ngo 0.Quarterscores: 19-8, 39-28, 54-52, 74-72
