La Salle choked UST to 33.75 percent all game, swatting away six shots, and forcing them to 24 errors, which led to 24 markers. The Archers took the fight out of the toothless Tigers with a 25-8 run in the second quarter sparked by Ricci Rivero, who dropped 11 of his 16 in their breakaway. Marvin Lee (25) and Steve Akomo (14) paced UST, which has lost to DLSU by an average of 36.25 points since Season 79. “People will tend to notice the shooting but we should look at the bigger picture – we got open shots because we made stops, created points off turnovers. I think for us to succeed, we have to put emphasis on defense but it also helped that shooting percentage is quite high,” he said.
