Title San Beda Red Lions Soar to 24th NCAA Crown A Dominant Performance in Rivalry Match

In a thrilling conclusion to the NCAA Season 101 men's basketball championship, San Beda University reclaimed the title by defeating Colegio de San Juan de Letran, 83-71, in Game 2 at the Araneta Coliseum. This victory marked the Red Lions' 24th championship crown in the league.

The match was a true test of character for both teams, with San Beda refusing to let Letran force a deciding game. Despite a late push by the Knights, the Red Lions remained focused and composed, ultimately securing their triumphant return to the top.

San Beda's solid performances were led by Jomel Puno, Yuki Andandra, and Bryan Sajonia, who powered the team to a 65-53 lead entering the final quarter. However, Letran's Jimboy Estrada sparked a late rally, cutting the deficit to five points with seven minutes remaining.

In response, San Beda coach Boyet Escueta made strategic adjustments, clamping down on Letran's key players and shutting down Titing Manalili. This move ultimately paid dividends as the Red Lions regained composure and pushed their lead back up to 70-60.

Nygel Gonzales and Yuki Andrada led the charge in the final minutes, propelling San Beda to an 80-69 lead with less than two minutes remaining. This all but clinched the championship for the Red Lions, who dug deep to secure the win without their main gunner Janti Miller, who was ejected in Game 1 after picking up two technical fouls.

Escueta praised his team's hard work and effort, stating, I am thankful for my players, and to all my coaches. This is the product of our hard work and effort. He already has his sights set on titles three and four, signaling a dynasty in the making.

San Beda's dominance was led by Finals MVP Bryan Sajonia, who scored 21 points, grabbed nine rebounds, and dished out nine assists. Yuki Andrade matched him with 21 points, while Nygel Gonzales contributed 19. Jomel Puno added seven points and 14 rebounds in support.

Letran's Titing Manalili led his team's charge with 15 points and seven assists, while Kevin Santos added 14 points, but it wasn't enough to secure the win.
