The UAAP Season 85, themed "Rise as One", starts on October 1 with Adamson University as this season's host and with men's & women's basketball as the first events in the calendar. It will be the second UAAP season in a year, with the organization set to release their opening round schedule for men's & women's basketball on the week of September 26.
