MANILA, Philippines – Allen Liwag found a new home at the College of Saint Benilde.
St. Louis Benilde Coach Charles Tiu has confirmed that former Emilio Aguinaldo College striker has committed to join the team.
“It is great to have him on board. He will be a big part of our team and a great addition. He is a good player and we will continue to develop his game,” Tiu told Inquirer Sports.
Liwag bid farewell to EAC last week after two seasons. He also had an offer from San Beda but he chose to play for St.
The 21-year-old big man, who averaged 10.2 points, 8.6 rebounds, 0.93 blocks, and 0.53 steals for the Generals as they finished 3-15 in Season 98, had to sit out a year before making his Blazer debut in in the NCAA.
Tiu said that once Liwag completes the requirements and registers, they will start training and playing with St.Benilde’s B Team in another league.
“We will try to get him to play in several leagues with our B team and he will also participate in training. I think he has finished the paper work and registered,” said the Blazers coach.
The 6-foot-6 Liwag will debut in Season 100 in 2024, filling the role of MVP Will Gozum, who will play his final year in the upcoming Season 99.
