The University of Santo Tomas (UST) Growling Tigers, headed by a young Dennis Espino swept the elimination round to clinch their first championship since 1967. The Final Four format was supposed to be in its first year of application but since the rules stipulated that once a team wins all of their elimination round games, the postseason is scrapped and that team is declared the automatic champion.[1][2]

gollark: The CSM is generally somewhat bee.
gollark: Now, I could make it redirect to the canonical one, but this would introduce additional round trip time.
