Arki Alumni Basketball Team (originally known as UAP-D2/UAPGA-D2 Basketball Team) is the basketball team of the Western Mindanao State University, College of Architecture Alumni Association (WMSU-CAAA) and the United Architects of the Philippines, Regional District D2 (UAP-D2).

Contents

The team was originally known as UAP-D2 Architects' Basketball Team and UAPGA-D2 Alumni Basketball Team, formed in 2006 to keep the players active and healthy by playing against each other since there is no active post-collegiate or semi-professional basketball tournaments in Zamboanga City. Then in 2008, it had joined forces to compete in the 1st Davies Paints Cup in Zamboanga City, wherein they won the crown. They also won the 2009 & 2010 editions of the tournament.

Because some players in the annual Davies Cup are not yet registered architects, the team was renamed to Arki Alumni Basketball in 2015 because they are all graduates of Western Mindanao State University - College of Architecture and to avoid the miss-used of the title of an Architect.

In 2015, the team played in two tournaments in Zamboanga City, the 2015 Davies Paints Basketball Cup at ZC Golden Boys Gym on Tuesdays & Thursdays, and the 2015 WMSUAA Basketball Challenge at Western Mindanao State University on Saturdays.

On November 6, 2015, they were in their 5th finals appearance of the Davies Cup but failed for the second time after leading the game for most part of the final game. After a 15-day rest, they played again on November 21, 2015 at the 2015 WMSUAA Basketball Challenge in Western Mindanao State University, Zamboanga City wherein they finished 3rd place behind CTE Alumni Team & CFES Alumni Team.

Today, the same team is paying in the on-going 2016 Davies Paints Basketball Cup at ZC Golden Boys Gym scheduled on Mondays & Fridays.

The WMSU College of Architecture Alumni Association (CAAA) also holds an annual homecoming event/s every 2nd weekend of December.
