LA SALLE emerged as the clear frontrunner even if the protagonists in the Luzon-Metro Manila leg of the Philippine Collegiate Champions League (PCCL) have yet to be completed.

The Green Archers’ fierce rival Ateneo had begged off from the tournament, leaving the former UAAP champions to compete against Jose Rizal University, Perpetual Help, Centro Escolar U, St. Clare, Diliman College and two other squads from North-Central Luzon and South Luzon-Bicol.

Led by Jeron Teng, the Archers will start their quest in the stepladder knockout contest against the JRU Bombers on Nov. 9 at First Asia Institute of Technology and Humanities gym in Tanauan City, Batangas.
