Bringing once again its gritty and purely amateur brand of basketball, the National Athletics Association of Schools, Colleges and Universities commences its 21st season on Oct. 23 at the Cuneta Astrodome.
“Our league is mandated to help sports development,” said NAASCU president Dr. Ernesto Jay Adalem during Tuesday’s Philippine Sportswriters Association Forum at the Rizal Memorial Sports Complex. “We promote amateurism and avoid commercialization among our young athletes.” Adalem noted that in a previous opening rite before the pandemic, the league managed to gather more than 15,000 spectators which was the most number at any given time at the Astrodome.The 10 member schools are St. Clare College of Caloocan, New Era University, Enderun Colleges, Our Lady of Fatima University, AMA University, Philippine Christian University, Manuel L. Quezon University, City University of Pasay, Holy Angel University and University of Makati.
CUP battles Umak in the second; PCU squares off with HAU in the third; MLQU locks horns with AMA in the fourth; before Enderun collides with OLFU in the fifth game.
