MANILA, Philippines—San Beda vented its ire on Jose Rizal University for a highly lopsided 96-61 win in the NCAA Season 98 men’s basketball tournament at San Juan Arena on Friday
After losing to Jose Rizal University on Tuesday, the Red Lions came out hot right out of the gate with a 20-point lead in the first quarter and never looked back, dealing the Chiefs their fourth season loss to end round one with a 4-4 win-loss record.
“Our loss against JRU was really humbling to us. Coming to that game, they got overconfident and didn’t respect our opponent so I had to give them a sermon after that game,” San Beda head coach Yuri Escueta said.
San Beda, which moved up to a 5-2 slate, limited the Chiefs to only 14 points in the second quarter to go up at halftime, 55-23.
Arellano remained cold in the second half, as it trailed by as much as 51, 84-33.
JB Bahio notched a near double-double with 13 points and eight rebounds for the Red Lions. James Kwekuteye also scattered 13 points while Tony Ynot scored 11. Justine Sanchez and Jacob Cortez finished with 10 apiece.
Shane Menina was the sole double-digit scorer for the Chiefs with 10 markers. Axel Doromal, the leading scorer of the league so far, was locked down to only eight.
