What happened?
Cariaso announced the news on his Instagram story, stating that his time as head coach of the team has ended. He expressed his gratitude to the management team for the opportunity and their trust.
Why it matters for Blackwater Bossing
The coaching change happened in the middle of the PBA Commissioner's Cup, where the Bossing are currently holding a 1-4 win-loss record. Cariaso was named as Blackwater head coach in 2023 and previously called the shots for Barangay Ginebra, Alaska, and Converge.
