Games Tuesday
(Mall of Asia Arena)
1:30 p.m. — Mapua vs Saint Benilde
3:30 p.m. — Lyceum vs San Beda
Saving his best for last, wingman Romel Calahat delivered his best effort of the year as he powered San Sebastian College-Recoletos to a 98-89 win over Arellano University yesterday and salvaged some measure of pride in National Collegiate Athletic Association Season 99 basketball tournament at the Filoil EcoOil Arena.
Calahat was nothing short of masterful as he ended his NCAA career with a bang — 24 points, 10 rebounds, three assists and two steals — while helping the Stags conclude their up-and-down season on a bright note with a 6-12 record, good for eighth place.
“This was our last game so we gave everything,” said Calahat, referring to the valuable contributions of fellow seniors Jessie Sumoda and skipper Alex Desoyo.
