NCAA puts Fil-foreigners under scrutiny

MANILA, Philippines - The NCAA policy board told the management committee to further study the issue regarding foreign players playing in the 86-year-old league before it could render a final decision.

“At a special meeting of the NCAA policy board held last Dec. 3 at the ELJ Towers in Quezon City, the policy board reiterated its previous decision to thoroughly study the issue regarding foreign players before a final decision is made,” said the league board, chaired by Fr. Anthony Morillo, OAR, of host San Sebastian, in a statement.

“Accordingly, the policy board instructed the NCAA management committee to submit its views at its next meeting,” it added.

The discussion came on the issue on foreign players currently suiting up for several cage teams in the NCAA, including reigning champion San Beda’s 6-7 American behemoth and MVP Sudan Daniel.
