At least ngayon nakikita ko talaga na yung character namin, starting to build and talagang ayaw magpatalo ng mga bata,&quot; he added.</p><p>Lingolingo, who finished with 10 points, five rebounds, and three steals, grabbed the game&#x27;s most crucial offensive glass, and he turned it into the shot that allowed UE to stay within the top 3 of the UAAP after the first round. </p><p>&quot;Yung sa last shot yun, nga sinasabi rin ni Coach LA [Revilla] sa akin na right place at the right time talaga. Parang nakuha ko lang yun doon, tapos nung nakita ko yung oras, hindi na ako nagdalawang isip itira talaga,&quot; he added. </p><p>Top scoring for UE was Precious Momowei who posted 14 markers, 11 boards, and three steals, while Devin Fikes put up 11 points, three rebounds, and an assist. Ethan Galang also made crucial baskets that helped the Warriors storm back from a 10-point deficit, with the sniper draining six of his 10 total points from beyond the arc. </p><p>Despite this win, however, Santiago maintained that they must not get too ahead of themselves come the second round.</p><p>&quot;Before we entered the gym kanina, in-explain ko lang sa mga boys yung magiging scenario pag nanalo kami. Possible mag end up kami worst is number three, or maybe number two, depending on the outcome of the next game. In-explain ko rin sa kanila na kung matatalo kami, we&#x27;ll be ending up number five, so yun yung mga scenario so sinabi ko sa kanila na after the game. Nanalo na kami, 5-2, but sabi ko by next game, 0-0 ulit kami so di kami mag re-relax. 0-0 parin come second round,&quot; he added.</p><p>On the other hand, the Soaring Falcons, who were led by Monty Montebon&#x27;s 12 markers and Matt Erolon&#x27;s 11 points, plummeted to 3-4. Montebon also missed the jumper that could have extended their lead to four before Lingolingo&#x27;s buzzer-beater. </p><div><strong>The Scores:</strong></div><p><strong>UE 63</strong> – Momowei 14, Fikes 11, Lingolingo 10, Galang 10, J.
