MANILA, Philippines -- San Beda University's versatile forward Calvin Oftana has earned the Most Valuable Player award for the NCAA Season 95 men's basketball tournament, capping a year that saw him blossom from role player into a bona fide star for the Red Lions.

Oftana averaged a team-high 15.6 points, 8.2 rebounds, and 2.7 assists for the unbeaten Red Lions, while playing nearly 25 minutes per game. He accumulated a total of 51.56 Player Average Value (PAV) for the year, leading the league.

It was a massive leap from his numbers last season, when Oftana played just 10.8 minutes a game, averaging just 4.8 points and 3.0 rebounds per contest.

Oftana is the first Red Lion to earn the league's top individual honor since Sudan Daniel in 2010.

Joining Oftana in the Mythical Team are the "Bandana Brothers," Evan Nelle and James Canlas.
