The publication has yet to report any reason on Cansino's departure.

Under his leadership as captain, Cansino brought his team to a runner-up finish in the UAAP Season 82 men's basketball tournament behind champions Ateneo de Manila University.

Last season, in his sophomore year, Cansino averaged 6.07 points and 4.29 rebounds. —Justin Kenneth Carandang/MGP, GMA News
