10. NCAA Heartbreak Kids
The CSB Blazers were expected to make waves at the start of NCAA Season 89. After nearly defeating 3-time defending champion San Beda on opening day, many expected the team to finally make a splash after years of futility.
As it turned out, things went downhill for the Blazers as they lost all their first five games by a margin of less than 2 points. They were able to get some wins towards the end of the first round but it wasn’t enough as more painful setbacks followed.
In a season wherein they could have contended for a Final 4 berth had endgame breaks gone went their way, the Blazers finished in 9th place at 5-13.
Their season could be summed up as simply “Tough Luck.”
