A pair of UB players were feted as the best in their division. Jerome Mananquil was named Finals Most Valuable Player, while teammate Toto Lloveras was awarded the division’s Most Valuable Player.

In the boys’ 19-Under Division, Maryhill College Team A emerged triumphant in the eight-team bracket that included Maryhill Colleges Team B, AFC, San Pablo Colleges, Malvar Football Club, TSL Printing Football Club and Tanauan Football Academy. 

Maryhill Colleges Team’s Alen Elpa was named Finals MVP, with teammate Roy Yares taking home the Division MVP trophy.
