La Salle silences Growling Tigershome/Sports/La Salle silences Growling TigersEncho Serrano and Aljun Melecio joined forces to lead De La Salle University to a lopsided 92-77 win over University of Santo Tomas (UST) in Season 82 University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) men’s basketball tournament on Saturday at the Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City. The Green Archers’ win-loss record improved to 3-4 at the end of the first round. We were just talking about it — when our team follows the game plan, the results will follow,” said La Salle coach Gian Nazario. Justine Baltazar’s lay-up gave La Salle a 78-61 cushion with 4:53 remaining in the game and the Archers were never threatened from thereon. Jamie Malonzo almost had a double-double output of 13 points and nine rebounds for La Salle.
