The 5-foot-11 guard led FEU-Diliman in their unexpected title run, which included ousting NU-Nazareth School and top-seeded Adamson.
He had 15.7 points, 6.7 assists, 4.9 rebounds, and 2.4 steals per game.
Pasaol is the latest in a long line of excellent guards from the school, and he will support lolongtime Tamaraws playmaker L-Jay Gonzales.
The 18-year-old brother of the latter, old's Alvin Pasaol a current Meralco Bolts player who once scored 49 points for UE in a UAAP contest, is the latter's younger brother.
FEU is trying to get back into the playoff picture after having its eight-year streak of reaching the Final Four broken last year.
Its new quarterback is school icon, Denok Miranda, though the Tamaraws will still rely on Gonzales and up-and-comers Patrick Sleat and Bryan Sajonia.(Romeo Braceros Jr.)
