DE LA Salle University-Dasmariñas tests the mettle of St. Dominic College of Asia, while Olivarez College meets Emilio Aguinaldo College-Cavite in the 30th NCRAA basketball tournament at Bestlink Gymnasium in Quezon City.

After a heartbreaking 84-86 loss to Asian Institute of Maritime Studies last Monday, the DLSU-Dasmariñas of coach Tito Reyes aims to regain its winning ways when it faces SDCA of coach Bong Dela Cruz at 8 a.m.

Rogelio Calagos, who finished with 22 points, 15 rebounds, seven assists, and six steals against AIMS, is again expected to lead the Patriots.

SDCA, which is also looking to get back into the win column after their 55-59 loss to AIMS last Friday ,will lean on Edward Daquioag and Didoy Proel.

In other matches, Philippine Merchant Marine School will face LPU-Laguna at 10 a.m.; Olivarez College will square off with EAC-Cavite at 12 noon; and defending champion Immaculada Concepcion College will take the floor against PATTS at 2 p.m.

PMMS is fresh from a lopsided 81-50 win over University of Luzon, while Lyceum is hoping to bounce back from a 50-85 setback to ICC.

Olivarez is gunning for a fitting follow-up to its recent 80-68 victory against PATTS College of Aeronautics, while EAC-Cavite is seeking a repeat of its 93-78 triumph over Bestlink.

ICC is gunning for its fourth win .
