MANILA, Philippines — La Salle and the University of Santo Tomas may have to wait a little longer for their winner-take-all match if rains spawned by Typhoon “Santi” continue all through Saturday, a UAAP official said Friday.
UAAP secretary-treasurer Malou Isip said that the league would make its official announcement whether to postpone the game or not before the 3:30 p.m. tiff at the Mall of Asia Arena.
Heavy rains continued to affect several parts of the country on Friday with Signal no. 2 being raised over Metro Manila by the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa).
Isip also said that a back-up date has been set by the league in case of a postponement. Game three will be played on October 16, also at the MOA Arena.
After the Archers tied the best-of-three finals series against the Growling Tigers last week, both teams have had a full week of rest.
