The Red Warriors (0-6) are eager to finally get on the board after a gut-wrenching 111-110 overtime loss to La Salle where they squandered a 21-point cushion.
Despite the setback, Precious Momowei delivered a career-best 42 points, marking the highest single-game output by a Red Warrior since Alvin Pasaol’s 49 points in Season 80.
UE will be without Wello Lingolingo and head coach Chris Gavina, both serving suspensions stemming from an unsportsmanlike foul and a postgame outburst, respectively.
With pride on the line, the Red Warriors are determined to end Round 1 on a high note and snap their 11-game skid dating back to last season.
