The Emilio Aguinaldo College (EAC) Generals are the varsity teams of Emilio Aguinaldo College of Ermita, Manila. They currently play at the Universities and Colleges Athletic Association (UCAA) and the National Capital Region Athletic Association (NCRAA).

They will play as a guest team in the 2009–10 season of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (Philippines).

UCAA

The Generals are one of the charter members of the UCAA in 2002; they first won the men's basketball title in 2004 where they defeated two-time runner-up Philippine School of Business Administration Jaguars. They would later win the next two UCAA championships mostly due to exploits of Ronjay Buenafe.

In 2007, the Generals failed to make it to the championship round of the UCAA men's basketball championships, a trend that continued until the 2008 season.

NCRAA

While the UCAA holds its basketball tournaments during the first semester (June–October) of the academic year, the NCRAA holds its basketball tournaments during the second semester (November–March) allowing the Generals (and several UCAA teams) to compete in the NCRAA. The Generals also clinched the 2005 title, while they were eliminated in the playoffs during the 2006 season. In the 2007 season, the Generals met the Arellano Chiefs in the best-of-three finals series. After tying the series 1–1, the Chiefs, through their defense that limited Buenafe to six points, defeated the Generals to win their first NCRAA title.^[1]

NCAA

With the departure of Philippine Christian University (PCU) Dolphins after exposure of several juniors' players enrolling with forged documents, the NCAA originally opened its doors for new members, and EAC was one of the schools that lodged their application.^[2] EAC was named as one of the frontrunners,^[3] but the NCAA Policy Board failed to garner enough number of votes to admit a new member which closed the doors for new members for their 2009–10 season.^[4]

However, the NCAA invited "guest teams" instead, and EAC along with the AUF Great Danes and fellow NCRAA member Arellano, were accepted as guest teams for the 2009–10 season, where they are also eligible to win championships.^[5]

EAC, along with two other teams, finished sixth in the 2009 season with a 6–12 record, two games behind fifth place Arellano, the best performer among the guest teams.^[6]

In 2015, EAC, along with Lyceum is accredited as full members of the NCAA, based from their performance in Season 90.
