MANILA, Philippines -- The Lyceum of the Philippines University erased a double-digit deficit in the fourth quarter to stun University of Perpetual Help, 82-77, on Wednesday afternoon at the FilOil EcoOil Centre in San Juan.

It was the fourth win in a row for the Pirates, giving them a 4-1 win-loss record in the NCAA Season 98 men's basketball tournament. The Altas, meanwhile, dropped to 2-3.

The Pirates trailed by 10 points, 66-56, in the early goings of the fourth frame but turned the game around behind Enoch Valdez and McLaude Guadana, who combined for 25 points.

Lyceum out-scored Perpetual Help, 26-14, in the pivotal fourth period.

Shawn Umali contributed 10 points and eight rebounds for the Pirates, who scored 26 points off the Altas' 22 turnovers. Their transition offense made up for a poor performance from long range, as they made just four of 23 three-pointers.
