The Adamson University Soaring Falcons Men’s basketball team won the championship cup of the 14th Open Conference of the Fr. Martin Cup 2018 held last March 26, 2018 at San Beda University - Manila.
The Soaring Falcons won with an overwhelming score of 105 - 57 against the San Beda Red Lions. The same roster of players that fought in the UAAP Season 80 contended in the Father Martin Cup under the supervision of head coach Franz Pumaren. This cup also marked the first playing appearance of the newest import of the university, Dimircia Lenda Douanga.
The Fr. Martin Cup, which was established in 1994, is named after Fr. Edgar Martin, S.J., former Secretary-General of the Basketball Association of the Philippines. It is a pre-season collegiate basketball competition that gathers contending schools from various leagues.
The Adamson community is proud of this recent achievement of the men’s basketball team, which is becoming a strong contender in the UAAP, and extends its warmest congratulations.
