MANILA, Philippines (UPDATED) – UAAP MVP race leader Ben Mbala put on another dominant performance as his De La Salle Green Archers moved up to 12-0 in the UAAP Season 79 standings, following a 95-66 victory against the struggling UE Red Warriors on Wednesday, October 26, at the Smart-Araneta Coliseum in Cubao.
La Salle is two wins away from becoming the third team in the UAAP Final Four era to sweep the elimination round, with games against Ateneo and FEU remaining on its schedule. Going 14-0 also gives the Green Archers an automatic trip to the Finals.
A win for the Green Archers in their next game against rival Ateneo would also tie the 2002 La Salle team’s 13-0 start to a season.
Mbala finished with 26 points on 54% shooting, 20 rebounds, 4 blocks, and 3 assists, adding to his compilation of big-number performances in his debut season.
Jeron Teng also had another solid outing for the Green Archers, firing 20 points, while fellow 5th year veteran Thomas Torres had 11 points.
UE, which dropped to a league-worst 2-9 record, was led by the 17 points and 5 boards of Alvin Pasaol. – Rappler.com
