NU Bullpups open UAAP Boys’ Basketball defense bid vs FEU


National University-Nazareth School opens its title-retention bid against Far Eastern University-Diliman on Wednesday in the UAAP Season 82 Boys’ Basketball Tournament.

The Bullpups and the Baby Tamaraws clash in the third game of a heavy four-game bill at 1:00 p.m. at the Paco Arena.

Ateneo hopes to open its post-Kai Sotto era on a high note against Adamson, also at 1:00 p.m.

Meanwhile, De La Salle-Zobel and UP Integrated School collide in the 9 a.m. curtain-raiser. Estong Ballesteros will then make his debut as the new University of the East coach against his alma mater University of the East in the final game at 3 p.m.

NU is looking good this season with big boys Carl Tamayo and Kevin Quiambao leading the charge.

The Bullpups won the best-of-three title series over the Blue Eaglets, 2-0, earlier this year to annex their fourth crown in eight seasons.

It also ended a two-year wait for NU to make it on top, with Terrence Fortea the lone member of the Bullpups team that won the 2016 championship.

All first round games, except on Dec. 1 at the Blue Eagle gym, will be at the Paco Arena.
