Ricardo, who held the position on an interim basis last February, will be the official head coach of the Knights who aim to reclaim the crown after losing it in Season 99.

In the juniors division, the 2-time PBA MVP Miller will lead the Squires who successfully defended their title against the Perpetual Junior Altas last year.

Aside from the two appointments, former Letran star Rey Nambatac and Kevin Racal will be added on Letran's coaching staff.

Nambatac will join hands with Ricardo while his ex-teammate Racal joins Miller's staff.

The Knights will be bannered by key players Kobe Monje, Paolo Javillonar, and Deo Cuajao, and their new addition Titing Manalili, who played for the Letran juniors alongside Andy Gemao.

The Squires, meanwhile, Marbel, Koronadal’s very own Syrex Silorio is expected to lead Letran for its three-peat championship bid.
