NCAA Cancels Saturday Games

The NCAA and the UAAP have cancelled their scheduled games on Saturday due to heavy rains.

NCAA management committee chairman Fr. Vic Calvo said that the matches between Mapua and Arellano at 4 p.m. and arch-rivals San Beda and Letran at 6 p.m. at the FilOil Flying V Arena in San Juan have been suspended.

AKTV will replay the thrilling season opener between the San Sebastian Golden Stags and host Letran Knights at 4pm to be followed by the epic overtime game between Perpetual Help Altas and the defending champion San Beda Red Lions at 6pm.

The UAAP games between Adamson and University of the East at 2 p.m. and University of the Philippines and University of Santo Tomas at 4 p.m. at the SM Mall of Asia Arena have been postponed to a still indefinite date, according to league president Nilo Ocampo.

Fans are advised to keep their tickets for it to be honored in the newly scheduled dates for the games.

Heavy rains have been pouring in Metro Manila since Friday due to the monsoon rains brought about by tropical depression “Ferdie.” Storm signals in several areas in Northern Luzon also remain.

The downpour has also caused the water levels of some dams and waterways to rise to critical levels, with PAGASA advising residents in flood-prone areas to evacuate.
