With Jed Manguera and Norbert Torres trying to stabilize the De La Salle offense, Celis and Celda ignited a 6-0 run to push NU into the driver’s seat for the 1st time in this ballgame, 47-45, going into the final period.
In the 4th Quarter, after two straight 3-point baskets from Cedric Labing Isa plus a deuce from Neypes , the Bulldogs were in cruise control at the 4:30 minute mark with a 61-49 lead.
