RR Garcia is solidying his place in the upper echelon of talent in the UAAP after being virtually unknown at the start of the season. The former RP Youth standout made an encore after his best game of the season, as he led the FEU Tamaraws past the UP Fighting Maroons, 86-74. Garcia chipped in 17 points, while MVP contender Aldrech Ramos had 16 and a season high 15 rebounds.
The Tams raced to a 15-2 advantage at the start and kept UP at bay throughout the game, with halftime ending at 40-31. FEU threatened to blow the game wide open after starting the second half with an 8-0 blast but the Diliman-based team made its own mini-run to spark some flicker of hope. However, back-to-back threes by JR Cawaling extinguished UP’s charge and FEU entered the final quarter leading 63-46.
Coach Glenn’s group cruised in the fourth and the win pushed their record to 10-2. FEU needs to win at least one of their last two games in the elimination round to secure one of the twice to beat slots in the Final Four round.
