MANILA, Philippines — Last year’s finalists National University and the University of Santo Tomas asserted their dominance against separate foes to stay on top in the UAAP Season 87 women’s basketball tournament on Sunday at Smart Araneta Coliseum.
NU dominated its way to a perfect 8-0 record, routing Ateneo, 82-62, in their second straight game in two weeks.
Rookie Cielo Pagdulagan sustained her fine form for the Lady Bulldogs with 16 points on 7-of-12 shooting and tallied seven assists, six rebounds, and five steals without committing a turnover, coming off the bench to extend their winning streak against the Blue Eagles to 20 games dating back to Season 75.

MANILA, Philippines —Putting a premium on consistency, Mo Konateh is determined to deliver more wins for Far Eastern University in the second round of the UAAP Season 87 men’s basketball tournament.
Konateh hauled a season-high 26 rebounds and dropped 13 points and four blocks as FEU escaped Adamson in overtime, 76-72, on Saturday at Smart Araneta Coliseum.
The Gambian center’s personal-high on rebounds was just a board shy of tying league record holders Justine Baltazar of La Salle and Ateneo’s former MVP Ange Kouame, who both tallied 27 rebounds in a game in 2017 and 2018, respectively.

MANILA, Philippines —La Salle star Mike Phillips was on the receiving end of a poster dunk by UE Red Warriors’ Precious Momowei in the second quarter of their rematch in the UAAP Season 87 men’s basketball tournament.
Instead of hanging his head over being posterized in what could be the dunk of the season, Phillips stayed on the course, resulting in his best game yet to get back at their first-round tormentor.
“Momowei every time I go against him, he’s such an energy guy and I can say, he’s the heart and soul of UE,” said the fourth-year La Salle big man. “Of course, when he made that play, I really felt the UE crowd. But I kept on thinking in those moment what our coaches, especially Coach Gian [Nazario] and coach Topex [Robinson], taught us: ‘don’t retaliate. Don’t stray from the system just because you want to get back at him.'”
