LPU continues dominant run, completes sweep of Round 1

In what has already been a history-making NCAA 93 Men’s Basketball Tournament, Lyceum of the Philippines University has just reached another milestone.

Drawing contributions from up and down the lineup, the Pirates destroyed Mapua University from start to finish for a 97-74 blowout at the Filoil Flying V Centre, Friday.

Head coach Topex Robinson fielded in all 15 of his players and each and every one of them contributed at least one point in the scoring column. “The beauty with this team is that we are 13 to 14-man deep. It’s always going to be about collective improvement and success,” he said after they wrapped up a sweep of the first round, winning all of their games in convincing fashion.

At the other end, they forced the Cardinals to commit 24 errors and quickly converted them to 28 points.

CJ Perez remained at the fore of the attack and scored seven points in the first quarter alone which saw LPU rush onto a 22-8 advantage.
