Bulldogs coach Eric Altamirano said with the video evidence 'inconclusive,' the rightful call should have been to let the game go into overtime. Jerome Ascano
THE UAAP basketball commissioner on Wednesday threw out National University's protest, upholding FEU's victory on a last-gasp basket by RR Garcia.
Basketball commissioner Ato Badolato said on Wednesday Garcia’s basket was made just in time. NU, however, can still decide to bring the case to the UAAP Technical Committee.
“The protest was denied,” said Badolato. “Obviously, ‘yung bola left the hand of RR Garcia in time upon the review of the game.”
Badolato said that he reviewed the game using the same camera angles that was shown during the television broadcast and it revealed that the ball was released before the clock expired.
Garcia’s game-winner lifted Far Eastern University to a 77-75 win over the Bulldogs on Sunday, the Tamaraws’ eighth win in 11 outings.
Spin.ph is still trying to get the side of NU as of posting time.
