Altas’ coach Jimwell Gican knows that they have a formidable opponent but wants to remain optimistic particularly with the home fans rooting for them. “We know that they (San Beda) are strong. Coming into the match as visitors, Red Lions’ mentor Boyet Fernandez sees a grueling task against the Altas. “Tough game (ahead) so we need to bring our defensive mindset if we want to upset Perpetual in its homecourt,” Fernandez told The Manila Times in a text message. The Junior Altas and the Red Cubs open the hostilities at 2 p.m.
