Archers fall to Falcons, drop to 4-4
The Archers failed to conquer the Falcons once again. La Salle lost their first game in Round 2 of eliminations with a score of 66-68.

The second quarter proved to be the downfall of the Archers as they allowed Adamson to have a 21-0 run, and scored only 1 field goal in the quarter.
A definite lack of solid defense and offense continued in the third quarter despite shooting 50% from beyond the arc compared to Adamson's 25%. The boys in green showed true animo with a comeback in the fourth quarter after being down by more than 20 points, via a 20-4 run.
The game was tied with less than a minute to go but the Falcons proved victorious as Alex Nuyles nailed a jumper with 0.8 seconds remaining.
With this loss, La Salle falls into a 3-way tie with FEU and UST at 4-4.
