Jiovani Jalalon took the wheel in clutched and steered the ship for Arellano as it survived Perpetual, 84-77, in an overtime classic Friday in the NCAA Season 91 men’s basketball tournament at San Juan Arena.

“Na-challenge ako sa kanya kasi siya papunta na sa pro, ako andito pa (sa NCAA). Naisip ko siguro kaya ko rin ang ginagawa niya,” said Arellano's Jiovani Jalalon of his match up with Scottie Thompson of Perpetual Help. Dante Peralta
