Reigning champion University of Perpetual Help Dalta goes for a finishing blow when it tangles with Letran in their do-or-die quarterfinal clash in the NCAA Season 101 juniors basketball tournament at FilOil EcoOil Centre in San Juan City Sunday, Nov. 30.

Fueled by their 74-69 overtime loss in the quarters opener, the Juniors Altas are expected to leave it all on the floor as they eye a redemption win against the Squires in their 1:30 p.m. showdown

The Joph Cleopas-mentored crew vowed to pull all the stops in hopes of retaining its historic junior crown this year.

Leading Perpetual’s pack are Felix Corpuz, Lance Nitura, Hanz Llupar and Kurt Velasquez as well as Louie Rosales, Ezekiel Zamoras, Renzo Zanoria, Arkin Crsitobal, Lord Dulanas, Kurt Patalinghug and Jude Binagatan.

The Las Piñas-based squads also gun for its third consecutive Finals appearance.

The victor of their quarters duel would take on either Emilio Aguinaldo College and San Sebastian in the semis.
