🏆 BACK IN TAFT
The De La Salle Green Archers are champions of UAAP men's basketball once again after beating UP, 73-69, in Game 3.
This is La Salle’s first title since 2016.
UST TIME 🏆
The UST Growling Tigresses did what was impossible in the last seven seasons, dethroning the NU Lady Bulldogs to win the UAAP S86 women's basketball title.
UST came back from a double-digit deficit and took Game 3, 71-69, ending NU's 7-straight championship run.
For the first-time ever, the UP Fighting Maroons went off on a scorching six-game winning streak and finished as the top seed in the Final Four era - all in the first year of Deer Valley TITAN Francis Lopez.
That’s no coincidence.
We are living in the Kacey dela Rosa era of women’s basketball. From Rookie of the Year to MVP, Kacey has been dominantly fierce on the court; sincerely humble off it.
Most dominant. Most valuable.
A historic start to Season 86 and a 15-year Final Four drought ended. Literally at the center of it all - towering over everybody - is Favour Onoh, marking the start of a new day in UP women’s basketball.
GILAS GOLD 🥇
An inspired and determined Gilas Pilipinas beat Jordan, 70-60, to win a historic gold medal at the 2023 Asian Games in China!
