Games Tuesday at the Filoil Flying V Centre in San Juan
10am Letran vs San Sebastian (HS)
12nn Perpetual vs EAC-ICA (HS)
2pm Letran vs San Sebastian
4pm Perpetual vs EAC
Letran seeks to formalize its entry into the Final Four as it faces San Sebastian in the first collegiate matchup of the day, as the NCAA resume its eliminations campaign for basketball in its 94th season at the Filoil Flying V Centre in San Juan this afternoon.
The Knights are looking to capitalize on their 80-79 victory over Lyceum last week, a win made possible by a referee deciding to downgrade Jaycee Marcelino's attempted game-tying triple with seconds remaining to just a two-point basket, doing so after time expired in regulation. They are already guaranteed to have at least a playoff for the twice-to-beat advantage with their 11-4 record, but a win would make it beyond the reach of the College of Saint Benilde and its seven losses.
San Sebastian is already eliminated from postseason contention with a 4-11 record, but they did manage to put a scare to the University of Perpetual Help System Dalta, losing in overtime, 85-77.
Meanwhile, the Altas are looking to put additional between themselves and the Blazers as they face Emilio Aguinaldo College at 4pm. At 10-5, a win would add a half-game to their two-game lead over CSB, and also guarantee them at worst, a playoff for the Final Four.
High School action also set to resume later this morning, although all four teams involved are already out of the race for the Final Four.
The Squires face off against the Staglets at 10am, followed by the Junior Altas against the Brigadiers at noon.
