UAAP rivals National University and Adamson University overcame the absence of their floor leaders to arrange a semifinals showdown in the 2022 Filoil EcoOil Preseason Cup.

With Steve Nash Enriquez and John Lloyd Clemente inactive yesterday, the Bulldogs banked on total team effort to stay spotless in the Filoil EcoOil Centre in San Juan after warding off hard-charging San Sebastian College-Recoletos 75-64.

John Galinato came up big with 19 points while Jake Figueroa and RJ Minerva had 13 and 11 markers, respectively, as NU remained unscathed after nine games.

The Falcons reached the semis even without top gun Jerom Lastimosa as Joshua Yerro and Joem Sabandal teamed up to take down Lyceum of the Philippines University 83-71.

Yerro topped the scoring column with 15 points on top of four assists and three rebounds, while Sabandal fired nine markers, seven coming in succession to ignite their 28-8 third quarter firestorm that increased a five-point lead, 32-27, to 60-35.
