‘Our inspiration’: Racela, Adamson fired up by terrific UE campaign
The Adamson University Falcons are drawing inspiration from the University of the East's recent five-game winning streak as they aim for the Final Four in the UAAP Season 87 men's basketball tournament.
Adamson's coach, Nash Racela, acknowledged that UE's persistent play, including a game-winning buzzer-beater by Wello Lingolingo, led to their narrow 62-63 loss to the Red Warriors.
This defeat, Adamson's second consecutive, dropped them to fifth place with a 3-4 record.
Despite their current standing, Racela remains confident that the Falcons can still make it to the Final Four, especially with University of Santo Tomas, currently in fourth place, within striking distance.
