Flawless FEU bounce back with a wire-to-wire domination of Adamson

By Kevin Estrada

SAN JUAN -- FEU bounced back from last Friday's loss to St. Benilde with a convincing 75-64 win over Adamson in the second game of the Filoil Flying V Preseason Premier Cup Tuesday evening at the San Juan Arena.

With balanced scoring the huge key in the game, Prince Orizu was the lone Tamaraw in double figures with 12 points as Olsen Racela's men improved their record to 4-1 in Group B, while dealing the Falcons its first setback of the season after starting the tournament with wins over Letran and UST.

"Hindi ko alam kung sino gagamitin ko every game," Racela said about their near perfect triumph in which they led by as much as 15 in the final frame at 62-47.

Sean Manganti led all scorers with 20 on a 50% clip from the field but the supporting crew contributed sparingly, with Jerick Ahanmisi limited to just three and only Papi Sarr joined the swingman in double digits with 13.
