A key cog for the University of Santo Tomas will be held out of their season opener.
The UAAP announced on Wednesday that it is suspending Forthsky Padrigao a game as a result from the incident he was involved during their semifinal meeting last season against the University of the Philippines.
As he incurred two unsportsmanlike fouls during the second half, both of which were of the Category 1 variety, he had been summarily ejected, and is set to observe a one-game suspension.
As a result, the guard will sit out the Growling Tigers' opening match, which also happens to be the Fighting Maroons on Sunday, September 21, at the Quadricentennial Arena.
The league also adds that since this act happened last season, Padrigao remains eligible for this season's individual awards.
