UP Fighting Maroons
wins its first game in the second round by defeating the NU bulldogs, 78-76 avenging their big loss to NU in 1st round. Miggy Maniego led UP in the 1st half with 15 points and Martin Reyes took over in the second half with 15 of his 17 points.

NU had the chance to send the game into overtime with UP leading by 3 points but UP opted to foul in the dying seconds, not giving NU a chance to make a 3 point shot just like in the overtime loss of UP to UE.

I hope UP continues this and gets back to all teams that defeated them in the first round. UP Fight!

Current Standing: 2 wins, 6 losses

  1. UP Fight! Keep on winning….
    Why don’t you win all the games in the 2nd round?
    Finish strong each game! Just “play” well in the fourth quarter ALWAYS!

  2. Woohoo! Sarap talaga manalo!!!

    Pero team, ingat pa rin sa pasa. 15 TO’s in the first half will do us no good when we go up against better teams.

    Bawian ang USTe sa Thursday!!! Too early to say but if we can close out games better this round and make those clutch jumpers, hindi malayo ang final four.

    GO UP FIGHT!

  3. GO UP Fighting Maroons!!! kaya yan=) UP tunay, palaban, makabayan! fight fight fight!!!
