MANILA, Philippines – The UST Growling Tigers relied on veteran guard Jeric Teng in the end game to defeat the NU Bulldogs, 71-62, in their Final Four clash. The Bulldogs were jittery to start the game, committing 12 turnovers in the first half. Teng, who drilled the dagger triple with 3:20 to go, wound up with 12 points as he extended his collegiate career. The Tigers are trying to become the first fourth-seed in the Final Four era to overcome a twice-to-beat disadvantage and defeat a number one seed. -- Mornings @ ANC, September 23, 2013
