MANILA, Philippines – De La Salle University (DLSU) took its first UAAP crown since 2007 by beating University of Sto. Tomas, 71-69, in Game 3 of the men's basketball finals.
After trailing the Tigers in the first two quarters, the Archers mounted a comeback in the second half to clinch the game.
Jeron Teng, Arnold Van Opstal and Arnold Vosotros led the way for La Salle.
The last time La Salle won the title was when it swept University of the East in the 2007 finals.
The Archers' victory also foiled the Tigers' attempt to become the first fourth-seeded team to win the UAAP men's title.
