Far Eastern University dropped the shocker against Ateneo who had the twice-to-beat advantage going to the Final Four. FEU cast doubt on the potential Ateneo-La Salle finals match-up and could very well just complete the upset this coming Wednesday.
Former Blue Eagles players Tolentino and Hubert Cani who scored 13 and 11 baskets each, played an inspired game against their former teammates.
Thirdy Ravena meanwhile steered the losing Blue Eagles with 17 points and 6 boards, Mike and Matt Nieto contributed with 13 and 11 markers apiece.
FEU and ADMU will face each other in a do-or-die match this Wednesday at the Mall of Asia Arena, with the victor booking the UAAP finals ticket opposite the De La Salle Green Archers next weekend.
