UAAP: Tigers tame Bulldogs, set up finals date with La Salle
The University of Santo Tomas Growling Tigers used a balanced 18-5 assault in the fourth quarter to make history, becoming the first fourth-seeded team to topple a first-place squad for a UAAP Finals berth, as they won 75-69 over the National University Bulldogs, Saturday, at the Mall of Asia Arena. The Growling Tigers, who needed to win the very last elimination round game of Season 76 just to get into the Final Four, bested the Bulldogs last Sunday, 71-62, to buck NU's twice-to-beat advantage. They now return to the UAAP Finals, after last season falling to the Ateneo Blue Eagles, the same team they defeated to make it into the postseason, with a match-up against the DLSU Green Archers.
