Baby Tams, Junior Warriors gain share of UAAP lead
Far Eastern University-Diliman (FEU-D) and University of the East (UE) have joined De La Salle-Zobel at the top of the UAAP Season 87 Junior High School Basketball Tournament standings after securing their second victories.
FEU-D, last season's runner-up, defeated National University Nazareth School (NUNS) with a final score of 89-71, avenging their previous loss to the same team.
Prince Cariño led FEU-D with 14 points and nine rebounds, supported by multiple players who scored in double digits, including CP Miranda, Mark Dulin, Duke Santos, Carl Diaz, and Anton Lopez.
UE dominated UP Integrated School in a wire-to-wire victory, winning convincingly with a score of 91-44.
Despite the win against NUNS, FEU-D assistant coach Arwind Santos emphasized that the team's motivation was to restore the strong FEU defensive identity, not solely to seek revenge.
