[jontyboy]

Yeah last year's NCAA Final Game was cut short by a riot by the trash-throwing Letran and JRC crowd.

Later the NCAA Title was awarded to the Kerby Raymundo(now suspended by the PBA due to his falsification of his HS Grad date in order to join the PBA)led Letran Knights.

what about the schedules on opening day? go st. benilde!

[bunnywabbit]

maybe there should also be a forum about NCAA since there's one for UAAP and it is a fact that the NCAA has been around longer than the UAAP

[vinncho]

In 1998 upon the representations of Brother Andrew Gonzales FSC-then President of De La Salle University Manila, the NCAA accepted the DLSU-College of Saint Benilde in its seniors division and La Salle Greenhills in its juniors division.

Letran won the seniors title last season against JRC in a riot-marred abbreviated finals match.

Although LSGH belongs to a different system I think they have a better chance of winning the UAAP JR title than Zobel. I know the NCAA is tough but for a glamour team, I think they are better off playing in the UAAP.

Peace!

LSGH used to play in the NCAA, back when the Green Archers was a member. Nawala ang LSGH after La Salle-Taft pulled out after a riot against Letran, so it's been quite a while since LSGH played. Give them a few years. Maganda if the La Salle-Taft and DLSZ captured the UAAP Srs. and Jrs. basketball titles and CSB and LSGH in the NCAA Srs. and Jrs. para an all La Salle affair.

in my opinion, mas maganda kung lsgh ang maglalaro sa uaap jrs instead of dlsz. i don't know how it is today but during my time it was lsgh whom we ateneans (high school) considered as rivals, not dlsz. correct me if i'm wrong, but aren't the lsgh athletes called green archers as well?

[basho]

Unsure but:

The NCAA members:

Colegio de San Juan de Letran - Letran Knights

San Sebastian College - San Sebastian Stags(?)

Mapua Institute of Technology - Mapua Cardinals

De La Salle University-College of Saint Benilde(whew!) - Benilde Blazers

Perpetual Help - uhhhh...Atlas?

Philippine Christian University - PCU Dolphins

Jose Rizal College - JRC Heavy Bombers

San Beda College - San Beda Red Lions
