Archers reach new low, fall below .500 again


The De La Salle Green Archers suffered a rare debacle, succumbing to Ateneo de Manila University, 65-81, on August 16 for the Archers’ third straight loss in UAAP men’s basketball at the Araneta Coliseum.
Besides going 0-3 dating back to last Sunday, this is also the first three-game losing streak of the green and white squad in the Franz Pumaren era. Add to that the fact that the Green Archers are 0-6 against its nemesis the past two UAAP seasons.
Unlike the first encounter, the Eagles started strong, erecting a double-digit lead going into the half. By the time 20 game minutes elapsed, they were ahead, 44-27.
Rabeh Al-Hussaini asserted his might, scoring 14 of his game-high 26 points during that time. The lead became 21, 59-38, from an Al-Hussaini fastbreak finish started by an Eric Salamat steal, 5:16 in the third quarter.
The farthest it got was 23, 73-50, from a Al-Hussaini bucket. The reigning MVP shot 12/20 from the field and also had three rebounds, two assists, and three blocks….

De La Salle suffers second two-game skid


The De La Salle Green Archers had one of those “WTF happened” games and succumbed to Adamson University, 55-61, on August 13 to start the second round of UAAP men’s basketball action at the Araneta Coliseum.
The Archers never recovered after AdU uncorked a 15-0 run in the first quarter, which set the tone for the rest of the slow-paced contest. Alex Nuyles gave the Soaring Falcons the largest margin, 46-30, with a reverse layup, 2:54 in the third quarter.
The nails in the coffin were two straight three-pointers by Lester Alvarez against two taller defenders and Leo Canuday as he fell down in front of the Adamson bench for a 58-42 tally, 4:26 remaining in the game.
The Green Archers tried their best to start a comeback rally but the shots were rattling out for a season low 22% two-point field goal percentage. To the credit of the Falcons, they also played a punishing physical defense.
This is the second straight two-game losing streak by the young green and white this season for an even 4-4 win-loss record. This is also the …
