NATIONAL University is aiming for a fourth consecutive win, when it plays Adamson University Saturday as the UAAP Season 86 men’s basketball tournament moves to the UST Quadricentennial Pavilion.
“We’re one of the contenders kahit wala kami sa radar noong summer. Tahimik lang kami. Hindi naman usapan ‘yung summer e. Ang usapan ‘yung season e. Alam ko confident ako sa mga ito, alam nila ‘yung gusto naming mangayari,” said third-year Bulldogs head coach Napa.The Bulldogs, already assured of the second spot at the end of the first round, are wary of a strong comeback from Adamson at 12 noon. Adamson is coming off a tough 46-49 loss to Far Eastern University last Wednesday.
The Green Archers, who suffered a 64-67 loss to the Fighting Maroons, are currently tied for third place with the Falcons and the Blue Eagles, all at 3-3. He stated, “We know it’s going to be a long road for us. We have eight more games in the eliminations. We will use these losses as a tool to get better. We are representing a highly successful program, and we understand that pressure is a privilege for us.”
