Now healthy, Bismarck Lina said he is excited to help San Beda University in its title defense campaign in NCAA Season 100.
Lina made his NCAA debut when the Red Lions played the University of Perpetual Help System DALTA last October 5, and logged more minutes against Mapua University last Tuesday.
"Sa ngayon, sobrang excited ako kasi since high school, 'yung San Beda gusto ako maglaro sa kanila. Ngayon ako natuloy maglaro so excited ako kasi San Beda 'yan eh, pinakamraming championships. Excited ako makatulong para mag-champion kami," he said.
Prior to his San Beda stint, Lina played for the University of the Philippines for two seasons.
However, his debut was delayed as he recovered from a torn ACL.
Now, the big man said he is just doing what the team is expecting from him.
"Sa ngayon, naka-focus ako sa kung ano ang plays na ginagawa sa akin. 'Yung extras na ginagawa namin ni Coach Norman [Black], pina-practice namin lagi, kung ano 'yung ginagawa ko sa drills," he said.
Against Mapua, Lina had five points, four rebounds, an assist, and a steal as they defeated the Cardinals, 76-69.
