Tim Edillor scored 12 points for UOG to be the only to hit for double digits. Jorge Piolo pulled down 7 rebounds to lead the Tritons in that category. The UOG defense did have 10 steals but committed 30 turnovers.

UOG is now 0-2 in the round-robin portion of the tournament and face National University from Manila as well tonight at 6 p.m. in the final game of round robin play.
