Collins Akowe scored the go-ahead layup with two seconds left as National University escaped Far Eastern University, 66-65 to join Ateneo and Adamson as early leaders in the PG Flex Inter Secondary Tournament at the Veacon Hope Sports Center on Saturday, Oct. 7.
Akowe stood tall for Bullpups anew, finishing with another double-double of 24 points and 16 rebounds including the clutch layup off a beautiful feed from Thomas Pillado to lift his team past the Baby Tamaraws and to a 2-0 record in the standings.
That, however, only set up the table to Akowe’s heroics as NU claimed a huge scalp in the UAAP juniors champions. Ateneo dominated Philippine Christian University Dasmarinas with a 76-66 win while Adamson proved to be too much for University of Batangas, 106-49. Chris Urbina led the way with 19 points as the Blue Eaglets led by as many as 20 points before keeping the Dolphins at bay in the final frame.
