#NCAA92 Day 17: JRU Upset San Beda, Mapua Outlast Letran.

In the first game of the last day of the first round of eliminations, the JRU Heavy Bombers dealt the San Beda Red Lions their first loss 79-73. It was the biggest upset of the season so far after JRU denies the Red Lions a first round sweep.

The whole game was almost dominated by the Red Lions taking the first three quarters 22-14 in the first, 37-35 at the end of the first half and 66-53 at the end of the third period.

But going to the final quarter, it was quiet bizarre that after scoring 29 points in the third period the Red Lions collapsed and only scored 7 points in the final period, giving the game away to JRU as they were able to outperform them in the final minutes.

Paolo Pontejos had his best game this season having 27 points to pull JRU up to 4-5. Meanwhile Donald Tankoua topped the scoring for San Beda with 28 points, the Red Lions still end the first round on top despite the loss at 8-1.

____________________________

In the last game of the elimination round, the Mapua Cardinals outlasted the defending champions Letran Knights 79-75.

The Knights were able to control the first three quarters due to the high turnovers of Mapua converting 32 points out of the 29 turnovers of the Cardinals, but Mapua were able to counter their poor ball handling with their rebounding as they were able to defend the paint better having 46 rebounds against the 28 of Letran. 

All was well for Allwell Oraeme as he had another monster performance of 20 points and 20 rebound, Joseph Erioubu had his best game for the Cardinals having 19 points and 12 rebounds, and Darrell Menina added 17 points as Mapua goes up to 6-3 to finish fourth in the first round.
