Guillian Quines delivered a career-high 35 points, along with 11 rebounds, four assists, and five steals, while Migz Osis contributed crucial baskets, including the final five points, to lead Benilde-La Salle Green Hills (LSGH) to a 95-91 victory over University of Perpetual Help System DALTA in Game 2 of the NCAA Season 100 juniors basketball finals. This win forces a deciding Game 3 on Tuesday.

Despite playing without the suspended Arle Podador, LSGH, fueled by Quines' 25 first-half points, built an early 11-point lead. However, Perpetual mounted a 24-12 run to take a slim 54-53 halftime advantage. Perpetual later extended their lead to 82-76 in the fourth quarter after a Jericho Cristino three-pointer.

LSGH fought back, with Gian Gomez hitting a critical three-pointer assisted by Quines to give them a 90-87 lead with 32.8 seconds remaining. Perpetual responded quickly, scoring four points on Icee Callangan free throws and a Jan Roluna basket to retake the lead 91-90 with 24 seconds left. Osis then became the hero for LSGH, scoring a transition layup and sinking three subsequent free throws to seal the 95-91 victory.

For Perpetual, Jan Roluna led the scoring with 25 points, seven rebounds, three steals, two assists, and one block, supported by JD Pagulayan (13 points) and Dan Rosales (11 points). Season MVP Lebron Jhames Daep was held to a season-low eight points but contributed 14 rebounds, six steals, two assists, and two blocks.
