Already on a two-game slide since the start of round two of UAAP Season 76, the Far Eastern University Tamaraws got some more bad news, when the league confirmed that former MVP RR Garcia would have to sit out their next game after accumulating two unsportsmanlike fouls.


Garcia was slapped with his second unsportsmanlike foul, Sunday, in their game against the De La Salle University Green Archers, after elbowing Oda Tampus, midway through the third period of their 75-66 loss.

He had picked up his first infraction back in their season opener, against the UE Red Warriors, also in the third quarter, for throwing the ball at Lord Casajeros. They went on to win that game though, 89-78.

Coincidentally, FEU's next game will be against UE again, on Sunday, August 25.

Through nine games, Garcia is averaging 13.9 points, second on FEU, along with 3.9 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 1.2 steals.

The Tams finished round one with an unblemished 7-0 card, but dropped their first two assignments of the second round, versus NU and DLSU. - AMD, GMA News
