SIZCO Roquid, Eoin Braga, and three other players have departed University of the East, opting to continue their high school careers in the NCAA.
Roquid and Brian Orca have joined Perpetual, while Braga, together with Mhico Abellar and Ethan Oraa, have transferred to Letran.
The ex-Jr. Warriors quintet were part of the team which represented the National Capital Region in the 2026 Palarong Pambansa in Agusan del Sur.
Roquid, a 6-foot-2 playmaker from Biñan, Laguna, averaged 9.9 points, 4.4 rebounds, 3.4 assists, and 1.5 steals for UE this past UAAP Season 88. He will play for only a year with the Jr. Altas.
Orca, on the other hand, is a 6-foot-2 forward from Olongapo City who still has two more years in the juniors level starting in NCAA Season 102.

Abellar, a 5-foot-11 guard from Antipolo, Rizal, collected 5.1 points, 1.5 rebounds, and 1.0 assist for UE, while Oraa, a 6-foot-2 swingman from Oton, Iloilo, logged six minutes of action.
