Precious Momowei will surely miss the University of the East’s crucial game against Ateneo as the UAAP slapped him a one-game suspension Tuesday, Nov. 12.
The 6-foot-9 Nigerian cager will serve the punishment in the Red Warriors showdown with the Blue Eagles at the UST Quadricentennial Pavilion Wednesday, Nov. 13.
This, after Momowei was called for two unsportsmanlike fouls in UE’s 76-67 loss to UST last weekend.
In that contest, the gritty big man received his first after an unintentional elbow on Mo Tounkara in the second quarter and was followed by another on Gelo Crisostomo in the payoff period.
According to UAAP rules, two unsportsmanlike fouls will result in a player’s ejection and will be suspended in his team's next game.
