Zonals
The delay in the completion of NCAA Season 89 has led to the rescheduling of the qualifying tournaments. The tournaments were supposed to start on October 25.[1]
The Visayas zonals were supposed to be held at the Ormoc Superdome but due to the destruction of Typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda), the games were moved to the Cebu Coliseum.[2] Also, due to the typhoon and to the Bohol earthquake a month earlier, the champions from Bohol (Bohol Institute of Technology-International College Crusaders) and Ormoc (Western Leyte College Mustangs) skipped the tournament.[3]
STI-Cagayan de Oro Olympians defeated St. Columbian College, St. Paul University of Surigao, Christ the King College de Maranding, Bukidnon State University, and Mindanao State University-Marawi and Medical Center in the Northern Mindanao zonals.[4]
