Miguel Ives G. Corteza (born February 23, 1998), also known as Miggy Corteza is a collegiate Filipino basketball player for the Saint Benilde Blazers of the De La Salle- College of Saint.

Collegiate basketball career

Corteza was recruited to De La Salle Green Archers in 2018[1] but left the Green Archers after one year at the same time with Aaron Waban, Jollo Go and Mark Dyke due to changes of staff and limited minutes in Season 80. [2]

He then transferred to College of Saint Benilde and served one year of residency before being eligible to play for the NCAA Season 97 in 2022. [3]

When asked about his career in taft, Corteza said

"I have no bad blood with La Salle. I still support them. Lasalyano pa rin naman ako." Interview with SPIN.PH[4]

Benilde Blazers (2019-present)

Under both Coach Charles Tiu and TY Tang, Corteza was quick to be one of the main contributors of the Blazers, averaging 8.7 points and 5.5 rebounds but the team failed to secure a semifinal slot in Season 97. [5]

Corteza's consistent performance made him known in the collegiate scene in NCAA Season 98. He averaged 17.67 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 1.0 steals in the NCAA Men's Basketball Finals Series against defending champions Colegio de San Juan Letran Knights.[citation needed]
