Games today:
Subic Bay Freeport
4 p.m. – San Beda vs. Mapua
6 p.m. – Perpetual vs. Lyceum
THE REIGNING champions San Beda Red Lions will try to stay ahead in the standings while the Perpetual Help Altas try to inch closer towards a spot in the Final Four when the 88th NCAA men’s basketball tournament heads over to Zambales in out-of-town games at the Subic Bay Freeport Zone.
The Red Lions take on the Mapua Cardinals in the curtain-raiser as they try to push ahead with their 13-2 (win-loss) record.
Mapua is in seventh place as of the moment with a 6-9 card.
In the second game, the Altas aim to solidify their hold of fourth place and the last ticket to the semifinal round when they battle the undermanned and bottom-dwelling Lyceum Pirates.
The Altas are coming off a 71-74 loss to the Cardinals last week, which dropped them to 9-6./Correspondent Jonas Panerio
