NCAA Season 88 is the 2012–13 season of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). The host school, Colegio de San Juan de Letran, will lead the opening ceremonies at the Smart Araneta Coliseum on June 23, 2012.[1] TV5, via its Sports5 production, will air the men's basketball tournament at AKTV on IBC, its first year of airing the league. With its new TV contract, the league was allowed to schedule Saturday games; on its old TV coverage partner ABS-CBN, no weekend games were scheduled.[2]
