MANILA, Philippines — The UAAP announced on Monday that it meted out a 2-game suspension on Ateneo de Manila Blue Eagles head coach Louie Alas for two infractions of unsportsmanlike conduct in the Season 89 men’s basketball tournament.
Alas reached the limit following his conduct against UP on November 7 at the Araneta Coliseum, where he entered the court and pointed and cursed at UP’s Jacob Bayla following the player’s endgame dunk.
Ateneo lost to UP, 82-74, but the game was already decided before Bayla’s dunk.
The UAAP added that Alas pointed at and cursed at Bayla again during the post-game handshake.
Alas, who made his first infraction against UST on October 17, will serve the first of his 2-game suspension on Wednesday, November 11, when Ateneo faces Adamson University at the Araneta Coliseum, and on Sunday, November 15, when his team takes on the University of Santo Tomas at the same venue.
