JC Macalalag and the DLSU Green Archers hope to regain their footing in the Final Four race when they square off against the Adamson Soaring Falcons on Wednesday, November 19, at 1:30 p.m. at the Mall of Asia Arena in UAAP Season 88 action.

La Salle, currently at 6–5, is looking to halt their own slump after a tough loss to FEU. 

 

 

Macalalag provided a spark in the defeat, delivering a breakout 14-point, five-assist performance, and the Green Archers will need more of that as they try to preserve their place inside the Top 4.

A win will not yet clinch a Final Four berth for La Salle, but it will deal a decisive blow to Adamson’s campaign by eliminating the Falcons from postseason contention.

Adamson enters the game at 5–7 and on a three-game losing streak, including a close fight against defending champion UP. 

Matty Erolon stood out with 19 points in the loss, but the Falcons have struggled to close out games — a troubling trend they must break to survive.

For La Salle, this is a chance to regain momentum. For Adamson, it’s do-or-die.
