Sa offense, darating naman po yung plays, and sinabi po sa amin ni coach [Jeoph Cleopas] na mamunuhan lang kami sa depensa.&quot;</p><p>Also vital in the Junior Altas’ fifth win in as many games were their 20 steals and seven blocks, and it indeed led to admirable numbers on the offensive side as UPHSD delivered 30 assists in comparison to JRU’s 19.</p><p>Perpetual also limited its counterparts to scoring only 19 points in the two middle periods, 10 in the second and nine in the third which resulted in JRU ending its two-game win streak, and dropping to 2-3 in Group A of the high school tournament.</p><p>AJ Lacusong and CJ Satparam, on the other hand, were the Light Bombers’ scoring leaders as they had 12 and 10, respectively.</p><p>Meanwhile, San Beda University triumphed over its rival Colegio de San Juan De Letran to improve to 3-1 and moved closer to clinching a quarterfinals slot in Group B.</p><p>The Red Cubs etched a 95-87 win over the Squires, with Randaile Medroso scattering 17 points and seven rebounds on top of a pair of steals and assists en route to being named as the WB Player of the Game.</p><p>&quot;Pag binibigyan po ako ng chance ni coach Miko [Roldan], ginagawa ko lang po yung role ko sa team. Kino-control ko po yung offensive rebounds at second-chance points po namin, and binibigay lang po namin yung 100% sa defense,&quot; he said.</p><p>After trailing by eight early in the first, SBU shifted to a high gear midway through the second, with Laurence Batongbakal Juris San Juan spearheading a 10-to-1 spurt to create a 36-27 lead with 5:00 left in the same frame. </p><p>The Red Cubs then increased their advantage to 83-68 later in the contest, and that proved to be enough for them to fend off the late run by Willie Miller’s boys who suffered their second straight defeat. </p><p>Letran, which is now at 2-2, was led by Daniel Padilla’s 19 markers, three boards, and two dimes.</p><p>In the third game, National University-Nazareth School improved to second in Group A after thrashing erstwhile unbeaten Mapua University, 84-52.</p><p>The Bullpups opened the game in a dominant manner and tallied a 25-10 advantage at the end of the first 10 minutes of gameplay, and at the forefront of that charge was Season 86 Juniors MVP Collins Akowe who had six of his 13 total points and three of his nine rebounds in that span.</p><p>National U then went on to lead by as much as 34, at 78-44, after a basket by Sean Casala at the 4:38 mark of the fourth, and that proved to be too much for the Red Robins who absorbed their first defeat in three games after coming from an earlier game yesterday morning in another league.</p><p>Sean Salvador was the lone bright spot for Mapua as he scored 12 points and got three steals. </p><div><strong>The Scores:</strong></div><div><em>First Game</em></div><p>Perpetual 105 — Pagulayan 19, Roluna 12, Baldoria 12, Cristino 11, Rosales 11, Zamoras 9, Daep 8, Tabbuan 8, Corpuz 6, Calangan 5, Borja 2, Nitura 2, Borbon 0, Patalinghug 0, Zanoria 0. </p><p>JRU 59 — Lacusong 12, Satparam 10, Aballe 9, Ferrer 8, Marin 4, Almario 4, Taparan 4, Tandang 3, To 3, Callueg 2, Pinzon 0, Palacpac 0, Abequibel 0, Correa 0, Castillo 0, Vocalan 0. </p><p>Quarterscores: 23-21, 45-31, 81-40, 105-59</p><div><em>Second Game</em></div><p>San Beda 95 — Vailoces 20, Medroso 17, San Juan 15, Batongbakal 14, Reroma 8, Dollente 6, Garcia 5, Winters 5, Feliciano 3, Benedict 2, Villanueva 0, Agbayani 0, Mondigo 0.</p><p>Letran 87 — Padilla 19, Dela Rama 13, Valdevilla 12, Reyes 11, Alforque 10, Cruz 7, Pico 6, Hugo 4, Villanueva 3, Sumagang 2, Magcale 0, Paguio 0, Quijada 0, Quinones 0, Danan 0. </p><p>Quarterscores: 18-19, 46-38, 73-61, 95-26</p><div><em>Third Game</em></div><p>NU-NS 84 — Akowe 13, Nepacena 10, Cartel 8, Casala 7, Alfanta 7, Palanca 7, Matias 7, Solomon 7, Locsin 6, Bouzina 4, Pillado 4, Natinga 3, Acosta 1, Usop 0, Napa 0. </p><p>Mapua 52 — Salvador 12, Coronel 8, Reyes 6, Bagro 4, Rodriguez 4, Miranda 4, Gragasin 4, Loriaga 3, Banal 3, Del Poso 2, Laurenaria 2, Garcia 0, Tagocon 0, Duque 0, Tolentino 0.</p><p>Quarterscores: 25-10, 37-24, 64-41, 84-52</p><div><br/></div><div><br/></div><div><br/></div>
