MANILA -- Paolo Hernandez's heroics has helped Mapua University emerge as one of the top teams midway through the first round of the NCAA Season 99 basketball tournament.
In their back-to-back wins over the Blazers and the Generals, homegrown forward Hernandez has shone, allowing him to earn the season's second Collegiate Press Corps NCAA Player of the Week honors for the period Oct. 3 to 9. The 6-foot-3 wingman, who delivered 16.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 1.5 assists over those two victories, hit the game-winning jumpers in the payoff periods of both games to allow Mapua to forge a two-way tie at the second spot with the Heavy Bombers at 4-1.
He mirrored this on Sunday when he hit a step-back midrange jumper to break a 69-all deadlock against EAC while also making a crucial deflection on the defensive end en route to the win.
