UST + Referees = Ateneo win

Even with the refs on their side, UST couldn't complete the upset. Jervy Cruz kept pushing his defenders all day long, yet they never whistled him for any foul. On the other hand, Ateneans were called for numerous dubious offensive fouls while getting all sorts of fouls on the defensive end.

Anyhow, awesome look by Escalona to Kramer for that uncontested, game-winning layup. Doug would've been expelled if he missed it. It will challenge Gec Chia's winning jumper over UE a few years ago as the best shot in Ateneo's UAAP history. Because UST led by one point prior to that last second play by Doug, I'd say it overtakes Gec's (as he made his shot with the game tied, and UE still had a final possession).

Now Mr. Allan Evangelista, take that and rewind it back. You went from hero to goat in no time.
