It was bound to end at some point. But you can't deny that the way it ended was beautiful to watch.
Arellano and San Beda engaged in an incredibly memorable tiff, as Arellano stood tall and ended San Beda's unbeaten run, with a 93-90 win against the Red Cubs. This was Beda's first regular season loss after 25 straight elimination round wins, while this was Arellano's second win against the Red Cubs in two years.
It was a close affair the whole game, with the first and second quarters both ending in deadlocks. With Evan Nelle starting off ice cold in the game, it looked like the stage was set for him to turn on the jets come the second half. Instead, that wasn't the case as another guard was the one who starred this time around.
Enter Guilmer Dela Torre.
Dela Torre scored at a torrid pace during the second half, going for 22 points, with 10 of those coming during the final quarter. It was Guilmer as well who had the final say for the game, closing the doors for a Beda win courtesy of an and one lay-up which he scored with 44 seconds remaining in the game. It was all Arellano needed to run away with the victory against the Red Cubs.
Both teams find themselves in different situations now. Arellano for once, is on top of the jungle, while San Beda finds themselves at the backseat this time around. However, we still have 10 games to go before the end of the elimination round. It will be interesting to see if the Braves have enough in the tank to keep their record immaculate until the end of the elimination round.
For the rest of the August 8, 2016 game day, Lyceum notched a crucial win for their Final Four hopes, while San Sebastian picked up their first win of the season against the hapless Emilio Aguinaldo College.
It was a total team effort for Lyceum in their 117-93 win, as they were able to repulse the 22-11 performance of Jielo Razon, with 6 of their players scoring in double digits for the game. Junjun Cecilio impressed with a 18-7-3 line, backed up by Makki Santos who put up 13 points and 11 rebounds.
For the third game of triple header, San Sebastian picked up one number one with an 87-71 victory over the winless Brigadiers. Team basketball shined once more, as six players of the Staglets scored in double digits, led by Kenneth Villapondo who scored 14 points alongside 17 rebounds. EAC was led by Angelo Beduria's 14 points.
