Falcons claw Cardinals
MANILA, Philippines — Cedrick Manzano powered Adamson University to a bounceback win in the 2022 Filoil EcoOil Preseason Cup with an 85-69 win over Mapua at Filoil EcoOil Centre yesterday.
Manzano produced a 26-point, 12-rebound double-double on top of five blocks as the Falcons got back on track and improved to 4-1 in Group A.
“Cedrick learned his lesson. Kasi, after the (UAAP) season, we gave them a one-month break and he enjoyed, siguro, too much,” said coach Nash Racela of his ace big man who had collected 16 points, seven rebounds, and four blocks at halftime.
In the second game, College of St. Benilde sent University of the East crashing back to earth with a well-earned 72-63 win.
Will Gozum scored 16 points to go along with seven rebounds, two assists, and two steals, while Miggy Corteza chimed in 15 markers and six rebounds in the Blazers’ back-to-back wins following a 56-point beatdown at the hands of the University of the Philippines.
