FAR Eastern University isn't letting itself lag in the recruitment wars.
The Tamaraws have secured the commitment of Cebuano stud Kevin Guibao from University of San Jose-Recoletos, coach Olsen Racela confirmed on Thursday.
"We like Kevin's upside. He's a natural wing and is athletic," he said. "It's going to be up to us coaches to develop him so that he reaches his full potential."
SunStar Cebu was the first to report on the development.
Guibao was the MVP in the 2019 CESAFI Partner's Cup where he led the Baby Jaguars to the championship, beating Sacred Heart School-Ateneo de Cebu in three hard-fought games.
The Cebuano rookie will join Ken Tuffin and Brandrey Bienes in the Tamaraws' wings as they aim to bounce back from their fourth-place finish in UAAP Season 82.
FEU is set to welcome sharp-shooter RJ Abarrientos and Nigerian center Emman Ojuola to the seniors team come UAAP Season 83.
The Tamaraws have also secured the services of Baby Tamaraws high-flyer Cholo Anonuevo and Technological Institute of the Philippines transferee Ximone Sandagon.
