Jessie Macasa canned two pressure-laden free throws with 28 seconds remaining and the rest of his teammates came up with a couple of big defensive stops in the dying seconds to clinch the sixth straight win for the Hawks.
Macasa’s two free throws off a foul by Louie Sendin came after Jerome Alonzo of AUF buried back-to-back three-point shots to put the Great Danes to within 86-87 with still one and a half minutes remaining.
The Great Danes still had a chance to turn the game around but Raymond Go missed two free throws with 15 seconds left and Bobby Gutierrez and Louie Aquino converted two of four trips from the line for the Hawks to finalize the score.
