VIDEO: Davaoeno basketball star Axel Doromal leaves Arellano University
DAVAO CITY—After losing another important cog in Davaoeno basketball sensation, Axel Doromal of7 the Arellano University Chiefs will have to completely rebuild by the time NCAA Season 99 rolls around.

Doromal revealed that he would be skipping his final two playing seasons in order to pursue better job options. Doromal was expected to lead the Chiefs next season following a breakout tournament last year.

Doromal claimed he is still "weighing his options," but he did not reveal the "opportunities."

With an average of 15.56 points per game during the previous season, Doromal was the Chiefs' leading scorer. He also ranked third in scoring in the league.

However, Arellano's 7-11 record prevented him from earning a place in the Final Four.

With the firing of coach Cholo Martin and the hiring of Chico Manabat at the conclusion of the season, the Chiefs saw more changes.

In addition, squad veteran Shane Menina declared for the draft after playing out his eligibility at the NCAA level.
