The Katipunan-based squad also aims to duplicate its 81-69 first-round triumph against the Archers last Sept. 8 and extend their mastery over La Salle to five games. “They look like they’ve sort of found themselves a bit. They’ve got a couple of good wins under their belt,” he said. “They pushed themselves right up into the Top 4 contention and that’s where they wanna be.”Thirdy Ravena and Ange Kouame remain the Eagles’ go-to guys, but SJ Belangel, Will Navarro and brothers Mike and Matt Nieto are also expected to fuel their attack.La Salle, meanwhile, just wanted to ride on the momentum of morale-boosting victories.
