—With Mapua’s NCAA Season 100 title celebration came the inevitable question of whether Clint Escamis will return to the Cardinals’ lineup for Season 101 or not.
Escamis, the Season 100 Finals MVP, officially has one year remaining with Mapua but instead of giving a straight answer, Escamis decided to let the talks go for now and instead relished the two hardware sitting in front of him.
“I’ll just enjoy this for now. All I know is, I’m a champion now, we’re all champions now,” said Escamis in Filipino after the Cardinals’ title-clinching 94-82 win over College of St. Benilde.
“This feels so good because last year, I got the MVP but we lost and that hurt my heart because somehow, it’s like I’m the only one happy but this year, I was fine without winning any individual awards.
