Lastimosa provides late spark as Adamson escapes NU

The Soaring Falcons used a strong fourth quarter to take early momentum highlighted by Lastimosa's back-to-back jump shots in their low-scoring affair.

Lastimosa showed poise down the stretch and orchestrated another huge play for the Falcons, dishing out a pass to Keith Zalvidar for a three-pointer before Joshua Yerro sank another basket for a four-point lead, 58-54.

Shaun Ildefonso pumped life for the Bulldogs with a triple of his own at the 1:13 mark but that turned out to be the last point they would make as Lastimosa also provided key defensive stops including a crucial block on Janjan Felicilda.

Lastimosa converted another one off a goaltending violation while Joem Sabandal and Matty Erolon both split their free throws to ice the game as Adamson improved to a 3-6 record.

"We're happy that in the second round, we're learning how to win," said Falcons head coach Nash Racela. "The first round really helped us in growing and today naipakita nila."

Lastimosa led all scorers with 17 points on a 6-of-8 shooting along with five rebounds, four assists, and three blocks.

Didat Hanapi contributed 13 points, Zalvidar added 10 points and four rebounds, while Cedrick Manzano played a pivotal role in the paint sans Lenda Douanga with eight points and nine rebounds.

Adamson earlier uncorked an 8-0 run to start the fourth quarter behind the efforts of Hanapi, Lastimosa, and Sabandal before reaching a 50-all deadlock.

Jake Figueroa scored a basket in response to Hanapi's completed and-one play before Lastimosa spoiled the party with his crafty playmaking.

Felicilda paced the Bulldogs, who slipped to a 4-5 record, with 13 points and three assists while Reyland Torres and Ildefonso scored seven points apiece.

Adamson will next face the streaking University of the Philippines on Thursday, April 21 at 4:30 p.m. while NU will clash with Far Eastern University in their 12:30 p.m. encounter.

The Scores:

ADAMSON 62 -- Lastimosa 17, Hanapi 13, Zaldivar 10, Manzano 8, Sabandal 6, Magbuhos 3, Yerro 2, Peromingan 2, Erolon 1, Colonia 0, Barasi 0, Maata 0, Jaymalin 0.
