Guest team Lyceum showed it means business in the 87th NCAA, beating host Perpetual, 93-87, to emerge the unlikely leader in the men's basketball tournament at The Arena in San Juan.

Playing their first televised game as NCAA's newest member, the Pirates were outscored, 1-14, in the early going but recovered their bearing in time to turn back the Altas and post their second straight victory in the week-old season.
