    UST Tigercubs Beat UPIS Badly UAAP 86th Juniors Basketball



    Future UST senior Growling Tiger Kevin Ferrer made crucial plays and beautiful lay-ups and dunks for his very precious UST Tiger Cubs as they trumpled willfuly the UPIS (University of The Philippines Integrated School) junior Maroons. The UST seniors team will have to wait one more year before Kevin plays for them because he's just barely 17 years old.

    The UST Tiger Cubs rolled to their second victory at the expense of the struggling UPIS Junior Maroons. They managed to have a huge lead, 51 points against UPIS. The score was 120-69. The game happened last July 24, 2010 at the Arena in San Juan.

    As what is expected, RP Youth U-18 Kevin Ferrer stood out and scored 37 points for UST. He had a great dunk in the latter part of the third quarter where he started the run onwards to 44 point margin.

    Here's Kevin Ferrer's "Salpak" dunk against UPIS, as what many basketball players would say "amazing":



    UPIS also made an effort to come back in the game thru the efforts of Kim Cinco and Jozhua General. Kim Cinco had 21 points for UP while General contributed 10 points.

    From the varsitarian.com:

    “We worked hard,” UST coach Allan Ascue said. “Our experiences in the past games really motivated us to strive more. Win-some, lose-some.”

    Ferrer added in Filipino: “We prepared for this and if I put up a bad performance today, the team would be affected.”

    The Tiger Cubs got their first win from De La Salle Zobel Junior Archers VIA 59-47 last july 20, 2010 prior from UPIS. They were unstoppable in the third period, in fact they had a 27 point advantage, 50-23 against DLSZ towards the 4th quarter.

    Here are the stats from varsitarian.net:
    Junior Archers Glen Capacio and Gabriel Reyes teamed up for some tedious scoring in the fourth, but UST’s double-digit lead proved too much for them to handle.
    Corre provided the final touches for the Cubs with a finishing slash to the post off an in-bound play in the last 35 seconds of the game.
    Jaypee Sarcia topscored for UST with 17, followed by Corre’s 13 points.

    Here's UST Tiger Cubs other games information from varsitarian.com:

    Prior to the win, UST folded to the National University (NU) Bullpups in a 65-67 heartbreaker on July 17.
    The Cubs tried to snap away from the Bullpups’ precarious one-point lead, 66-65, but struggled to make a basket with barely a minute left in the match.
    NU’s Ralph Tansingco sealed the deal for the Bullpups after landing one in the free throw line with just 15 seconds to spare, 65-67.
    Ferrer wound up with 20 points for UST while Airon Cabauatan added 12.
    Parungao bannered the Bullpups with 16 points while Tansingco trailed behind with 12 markers.

    Opening game debacle
    UST lost its opening game to the University Blue Eaglets, 72-76, on July 13.
    Corre, Sarcia and Ferrer carried the offensive cudgels for UST but the scoring trio could not tame their Ateneo counterparts Von Pessumal, Paolo Romero and Keifer Ravena on defense.
    Sarcia sparked the Tiger Cubs’ scoring barrage in the third canto with three big shots from three-point territory, followed by crucial baskets from Corre and Cabauatan to inch closer in the third, 52-55.
    Ferrer narrowed down Ateneo’s lead to one, 72-73, after launching twin treys with just 17.7 seconds left in the game. But Blue Eaglets Pessumal and Jose Mercado knocked down their freethrows, 72-76, to ice the match.
