The Junior Maroons blew past University of the East, 82-67, in their first game of the 2nd round last August 30 at the MOA Arena.

UPIS started red-hot as they scored basket after basket to get the early lead. Defense was also key as they forced multiple turnovers to end the first quarter 24-8.

The 2nd quarter was a Paolo Ancheta show as he put up 15 points in the 2nd quarter. UPIS continued the pace and ended the half with a whopping 29-point lead, 47-18.

The Junior Maroons led as much as 38 in the 2nd half but UE attempted to make a comeback headed by Joshua Viajar. UE cut the lead to 19 in the last one and a half minutes but a flagrant foul penalty 1 on Viajar stopped their momentum. ● by Juanito Gregorio
