The Soaring Falcons downed Ateneo de Manila University, 74-71, at the UAAP Season 86 Men’s Basketball Tournament on Saturday at the Araneta Coliseum in Quezon City.
Before this, a scorching opening salvo from Ateneo allowed them to be up by as much as 19 early in the game, but the San Marcelino-based squad used a 19-9 third quarter to get to as close as two, 46-48, in the same frame.
