RC Calimag hopes to fit in the NCAA this time as he joins coach Yuri Escueta in San Beda after playing sparingly for two UAAP seasons with the UP Maroons.

MANILA, Philippines – The San Beda basketball program scored a key transferee with the commitment of now former UP Fighting Maroon RC Calimag, who will debut in a Red Lions uniform by NCAA Season 100 in 2024.

“I just felt like I’m home again,” the 21-year-old Calimag told Rappler when asked about his return to San Beda, where he played as a student-athlete from Grades 6 to 10. Magaan din yun feeling ko since si coach Yuri nakipagusap and na-explain nang maayos about sa plans niya sa future ko with Beda.Escueta debuted as the Red Lions’ head coach in Season 98, steering his team to a Final Four duel against eventual first runner-up CSB.

“Having a talent like RC would be a big boost to our program,” Escueta told Rappler. “RC, coming from a winning program like UP, and what I’m hearing about his dedication to his craft and great attitude, would help what we are trying to build in San Beda.” “RC has asked for permission and guidance with his plan to transfer to another school. We will always support his decision, most especially if this gives him better opportunities to contribute and show his skillset,” said Uvero.
