Philippine collegiate varsity teams
The Adamson Soaring Falcons are the collegiate men's basketball team of Adamson University, which play in the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP), the premiere sports league in the country.
History
Adamson University alongside with Manila Central University, University of Manila and University of the East were admitted in 1952 on a two-year probationary membership status. Only UE and MCU retained as permanent member. However, MCU pulled-out in 1962. Adamson was readmitted into the association in 1970.
Adamson Soaring Falcons won its first Championship in the UAAP in UAAP Season 40 (1977–1978).
Season-by-season records
Until 1997, the UAAP primarily ranked the teams by tournament points using FIBA's method. Starting in 1998, the UAAP primarily ranked by winning percentage. There's no difference in ranking once all games were played, but in the middle of the season, rankings made by these two methods may differ.
