Behind the clutch shooting of Janjan Felicilda and Malick Diouf, UP ties its best UAAP start since 1997 after an overtime win against FEU
This is AI generated summarization, which may have errors. For context, always refer to the full article.
Janjan Felicilda shone for UP with 17 points off the bench, including the insurance layup with seven seconds left in the extra period that assured the Fighting Maroons their best start since they also went 4-0 in 1997. Taking over a minute, FEU’s Jorick Bautista bridged the gap to a whisker, 76-77, before UP’s CJ Cansino split his freebies and Felicilda nailed a short stab for the final tally.
“One thing that I have seen in the UAAP as an advantage in the first round, that if you get at least five or six wins under your belt, it’s a big enough capital entering the second round.”
