TAIWANESE FAVORED IN UNIVERSITY CAGEFEST
Manila, Jan. 30, 1998 - The First Asian University Basketball Championship resumes today at the Rizal Memorial Coliseum with Chinese-Taipei University facing Macau.
University of Manila will meet Indonesia, while Southwestern University will tackle MLQU.
The University of Manila Hawks and the Taiwanese team both have 3-win, 0-loss cards and are set to collide for the title Saturday.
In that championship match, the Chinese are favored because of their height advantage. Seven of their players stand at least 6 feet and 4 inches tall.
