NCAA Season 98 is the 2022–23 athletic year of the National Collegiate Athletic Association in the Philippines. It is hosted by Emilio Aguinaldo College[1] and was opened on September 10, 2022.[2]

Background

After two seasons, events such as men's and women's volleyball, track and field, swimming, and beach volleyball events will return at the senior's division.[6] For juniors, the competition will be composed of online taekwondo, online chess, and boys' basketball.[5]

Basketball

The seniors' basketball tournament began on September 10, 2022.[4] The juniors' tournament, the first since 2019, started on February 1, 2023.[7]
