Tyrus Hill collected a total of 3 points in the game that included his first dunk in the UAAP and a bonus free throw.
Together with Adamson's second leading scorer Kurt Lojera, Hill was recruited by Coach Franz Pumaren from California, as both players were part of the BallerZ team that participated in the AAU Basketball league. – Rappler.com
