There’s still no light at the end of the tunnel for the struggling Soaring Falcons, who are coming off a 56-54 heartbreaker against top dog NU.
Adamson had built an 11-point lead in the final frame, only for the Bulldogs to close the game on a 15-2 run to snatch the win, adding more woes to the San Marcelino-based squad.
Cerick Manzano led Adamson with 16 points but was the team’s only double-digit scorer in the contest.
Now sitting at 1-4, the Falcons are desperate to snap their losing streak and regain momentum against UE — the only team left without a win in the tournament.
