De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde survived a clash of short-handed teams, pulling off a 95-80 win against Colegio de San Juan de Letran in the NCAA Season 101 on Wednesday.

Justine Sanchez issued the dagger three-pointer as the Blazers cruised to their second win in a row despite missing reigning MVP Allen Liwag, Gab Cometa, and Joshua Cajucom.

The loss sent the struggling Knights to a 0-3 card in Group B as they played through the absence of key players Jimboy Estrada, Jun Roque, and Jovel Baliling.
