PCU eligibity scandal

After allegations of identity switching circulated via text messaging, Philippine Christian University was investigated by the Management Committee for alleged eligibility infractions on several of its varsity teams. The MANCOM has completed its own investigation and are waiting for PCU's internal investigation and has hinted of suspending the Dolphins for Season 83 after PCU's representatives did not show up in the MANCOM meeting.
After the deliberation by the MANCOM, the NCAA, via a statement issued by NCAA and José Rizal University President Vicente Fabella, suspended the Dolphins from all events after four players of the Baby Dolphins basketball team were found to have used falsified documents. The Baby Dolphins were ordered to return their second-place trophy from last season's tournament and all individual awards. The senior Dolphins' 2005-06 general championship trophy was retained, however.
