MANILA, Philippines – The UST Growling Tigers snapped out of a three-game losing streak as they gore the UP Fighting Maroons, 68-49, in the UAAP Season 74 men’s basketball at the Smart Araneta Coliseum today.
Jeric Fortuna scored 16 points to lead the Tigers, who controlled the game from the tip-off.
The Tigers enhanced their Final Four bid with their third win in six games while the Maroons failed to follow up their 76-63 shocker of the FEU Tamaraws in their last game with this disappointing loss, their fourth in six games.
