Reigning titlist National University-Nazareth School preserved its immaculate record after disposing Adamson University, 82-60, Wednesday in the UAAP Season 82 Boys’ Basketball Tournament at Paco Arena.

The Bullpups launched a balanced attack, with seven players scoring at least six points led by Steve Nash Enriquez and Terrence Fortea’s 13 points.

“Maganda na nabigyan namin ng exposure lahat ng players namin this early,” said Bullpups head coach Goldwin Monteverde, who earlier in the day was named as the head coach of the Bulldogs. “Malaking tulong sa amin ito moving forward.”

NU used a strong first half to create a 19-point separation at halftime, 42-23.

The Baby Falcons only made 22 of 82 shots, including just one conversion from downtown in 31 attempts.
