UE eyes No. 3; FEU tests RP 5
MANILA, Philippines - University of the East takes on Adamson today, looking for its third victory even as defending champion Far Eastern U tests the RP Youth U-18 team’s mettle in the Filoil Flying V Tanduay First Five Pre-Season Invitational Cup at The Arena in San Juan.
The Warriors, who beat the Tams, 78-72, in a come-from-behind fashion, and then routed Mapua, 80-58, are fancied over the Falcons in their 5 p.m. encounter in a heavy five-game bill that includes two junior matches.
Meanwhile, Ateneo dominated University of Perpetual Help-Dalta System, 75-60, last Wednesday as the Eagles notched their third win in four games.
Paul Lee, who scored 22 points against the Tams, and James Martinez, who came back from an ACL injury to fire 15 points against the Cardinals, are tipped to lead the Warriors’ bid.
