MANILA\u2014 Diego Dario hit the go-ahead basket as UP stays unbeaten in the FilOil Flying V Preseason Premier Cup with a 61-59 win against EAC at the FilOil Flying V Centre in San Juan City on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Dario hit a triple with only seven seconds left as the Fighting Maroons preserved their strong finish over the Generals.<\/p>\n

UP found itself on the wrong side of a potential EAC upset early on, trailing 6-19 after the first quarter.<\/p>\n

The Maroons, however, limited the Generals to only 10 points in each of the next two frames and crawled back to take a 41-39 lead entering the fourth.<\/p>\n

The game would become tight in the payoff period, and it boiled down to the final minute where Noah Webb got a piece of Jerome Garcia’s shot that eventually set up a Jun Manzo basket to put UP ahead, 58-55, with 24 seconds left.<\/p>\n

EAC would then score four straight points through quick baskets by Francis Munsayac and Juju Bautista to retake the lead, 59-58.<\/p>\n

But a wild sequence during the inbound made Dario free to take a running trey that went in to give the Maroons the lead back.<\/p>\n

Munsayac had one more chance to keep the Generals in the game, but his potential equalizer rimmed out as time expired.<\/p>\n

Dario finished with 14 points to backstop Paul Desiderio’s 18 for UP, which moved up to 3-0. Dario made four three-pointers overall.<\/p>\n

Garcia and Munsayac each chipped in 11 markers for EAC, which was sent back to reality following a huge upset of Adamson in its last game.<\/p>\n
