Letran Knights edge Mapua Cardinals 85-82 in OT

The Letran College Knights defeated the Mapua University Cardinals, 85-82, in overtime during their NCAA Season 101 men's basketball game.

This victory extended the Knights' winning streak to four games and improved their record to 4-3 in Group B.

Rookie guard Jonathan Manalili led Letran with a double-double, scoring 14 points and grabbing 10 rebounds.

Despite the win, Manalili cautioned against complacency, emphasizing the need to focus on future opponents.

Mapua star Clint Escamis had an opportunity to win the game at the end of regulation but missed his shot, and his team's final attempts in overtime also failed.

The defending champion Cardinals' loss marks a setback in their campaign, having recently lost to San Beda University and now falling to Letran.
