Archers, Lions seek to seal Filoil title duel
MANILA, Philippines - La Salle and San Beda seek to hurdle their respective rivals and forge a clash of collegiate champs in the knockout semifinal round of the Filoil Flying V Premier Cup at the Filoil Flying V Center in San Juan today.
The UAAP champ Archers take on the Lyceum of the Philippines University Pirates at 3:15 p.m., seeking a victory and a fifth crack at the country’s premier pre-season crown.
The Red Lions, on the other hand, battle the Jose Rizal U Bombers at 5 p.m. with the reigning NCAA rulers gunning for a shot at a second Filoil title.
Drawing another huge game from Ben Mbala, the Archers routed the Far Eastern U Tams, 78-53, to set a semis duel with the Pirates, who turned back the San Sebastian Stags, 86-71, in Wednesday’s quarterfinals.
Mbala, the UAAP MVP who steered the Archers to last season’s UAAP championship, bucked flu-like symptoms and shot 32 points and hauled down 19 rebounds to power La Salle past the Tams.
The 6-6 Cameroonian also dropped 45 points against the Letran Knights at the close of the elims last week.
