DLSU-MANILA STATEMENT ON THE UAAP INCIDENT
De La Salle University-Manila regrets the incident which happened right after the first game of the UAAP Men's Basketball finals series at the Araneta Coliseum on 29 September 2005. Many persons witnessed the unsportsmanlike behavior of one official of our Men's Basketball Team. The incident was also captured on national television. We certainly will not condone any such act especially if it harms others. This incident does not reflect the values we stand for as an educational institution.
We apologize to Arwind Santos and the Far Eastern University community, to the other UAAP member-schools and to the general public. We will fully cooperate with the UAAP investigation of the incident and abide by their decision.
Mr. Manny Salgado has apologized to the DLSU community and has voluntarily withdrawn from the team.
Many of us witnessed how well-fought this game was and how it has brought out the best in both teams. We hope that this rivalry will remain a venue for bringing out the best among our teams and supporters.
