The most-awaited 2nd Abbot's Cup is scheduled for Sept. 27, 2008 at The Courses at Andrews Air Force Base. Be sure to form your foursome now.

Online registration is now open!

At the start of 2008, the Washington Bedans gathered at the penthouse of Arlington Residence Court Hotel and partied all night long to welcome the new year and welcome our new set of officers. Since then, we've had the following activities:

New Year's Eve party
Super Bowl XLII
Officer's planning meeting
Father's Day Picnic

Red Lions Roar to 3-Peat!

Sam Ekwe

San Beda College captured a rare NCAA three-peat as they finished off the feisty Jose Rizal University, 85-69, in front of a season-record 20,360 fans at the Araneta Coliseum.

Sam Ekwe ended his college career with 21 points and 19 rebounds to be adjudged as the Finals Most Valuable Player plum while Ogie Menor exploded for 18 points and eight rebounds as the Red Lions became the first team to three straight titles since the San Sebastian Stags won a five peat during the mid-90’s.

It was the 14th time that the Mendiola-based cagers won a championship, tying Ateneo de Manila for second on the all-time list trailing Letran’s 16.
