NU vs Adamson / Ateneo vs UE - Round 2

August 20 - Mall of Asia Arena

Falcons Fall

Eagles Prevail

Gutsy rookie [#19] Chris Garcia drives for two of his six points.

Despite the obvious lack of inexperience of a rookie-laden [11 newbies in all] roster, Adamson has always goes down fighting.  Wednesday afternoon is no different. 

[#8] Jessie Pedrosa tries a tough perimeter shot
over Rap Atangan's outstreched arms.

 

[#13] Matthew Aquino drills this one from 3-pt.terr.

Final 
NU - 71       Adamson - 50

  

Another Sumang-Ravena Scoring Duel ?
No, not this time around.

[#13]  Charles Mammie and  [#11] Chris Newsome gut it out in the paint time and again  - both bigs leading their teams in scoring 

{ Mammie - 15 pts. / Newsome - 23 pts.}  [4 images below]

  

  

  

[#6] Sumang, [#15] Galanza, .....

..... [#5] Alberto,  ......

  

...... [#19] Pessumal,  [#4] Elorde .....
all manage to score from the perimeter .....
and of course , so does [#15] Ravena.

Kiefer actually misses FOUR of his SIX 3-pt. attempts  BUT it is only his second 3-pt. conversion { in the end-game, with Ateneo ahead by 1 }  that pretty much decides the match outcome.

My lens ISN'T EVEN FOCUSED on Ravena YET, as he swooshes { Nothing but Net !!! } this game-changer, several inches even !,  from beyond the arc !!!

 I do not even catch the ball in frame !

 {OK Lang - I'm not perfect - but anyway - Let me show you my BLURRED image of that Ravena three - below} 

--- Smooth ---

 A few more randomly mixed action shots from the match follow below   .....

[#18]  Babilonia foils a [#6] Sumang drive.

 

 Newsome gets ALL BALL on this Mammie drive !

No Call !   as ball goes out of bounds ...

Jumao-as accidentally hits Ravena's neck/shoulder area .

--- What Goes Up , Must Come Down ---

[#16] Gotladera waits for [#12] Mammie to bite his fake,
 then, as Charles is on his way down,  scores point blank.

Vets [#15] Ravena and [#4] Elorde take it straight to the hole !

  

Rookie [#6] Thirdy Ravena gets clobbered by the Red Warriors'  D.

Final
Ateneo - 78       UE - 73
