Bullpups sweep UAAP 88 Junior HS Basketball tourney
Business World Philippines
|December 11, 2025
NATIONAL UNIVERSITY-Nazareth School (NUNS) completed a perfect run in the UAAP Season 88 Junior High School (HS) Basketball Tournament with an 82-72 Game 2 triumph over Far Eastern University-Diliman (FEUD) on Wednesday afternoon at the SM Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay.
The NUNS Bullpups swept all 16 games this season to secure the program's first 16-and-under (16U) basketball championship. NUNS had previously won the inaugural tournament held in Season 86 in 2024 as a demonstration event.
Eager to end their 16-and-under careers with the Bullpups as champions, Malian center Moussa Diakite, Jaypee Yanga, and David Sabareza delivered stellar performances to withstand the FEUD Baby Tamaraws' fourth-quarter comeback attempt.
Mr. Sabareza capped his UAAP 16U career in style, earning Finals MVP honors after averaging 23.5 points, four rebounds, four assists, and four steals across the two-game championship series.
