Career highlights and awards

Matthew Allen "Matt" Ganuelas-Rosser (born June 13, 1990) is a Filipino-American professional basketball player for TNT KaTropa of the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA). He played college basketball for the NCAA Division II school Cal Poly Pomona. He was recruited to play for the Philippine national basketball team during their 2012 William Jones Cup campaign. He was drafted 4th overall by NLEX in the 2014 PBA draft.

Rosser was born in Olongapo City, where his father James Rosser and mother Gina Ganuelas met. James is a retired U.S. Navy who was stationed in Subic Bay for many years. But the Mt. Pinatubo eruption in 1991 forced the Rossers to move to San Diego when Matt was just two years old. When he was six, he started to love the sport of basketball. When he went to middle school, his potential slowly began to show. He played four years of high school basketball in Temecula Valley High School where he was the tallest player on the team. Scouts from various Division I colleges started to notice him. But a knee injury sidelined him in his senior year where he missed 15 games. Despite of the injury, he averaged 18 points and 10 rebounds per game.

Rosser played for California State Polytechnic University, Pomona Broncos from 2008 to 2012. During his four years at Cal Poly Pomona, he finished seventh all-time in games played and helped the Broncos capture the 2010 NCAA Men's Division II Basketball Championship.

In August 24, 2014, Rosser was picked by the NLEX Road Warriors in the 2014 PBA draft as their 4th overall pick. On September 22, 2014, Rosser was sent from NLEX to Talk 'N Text which is a part of a series of trades between Talk 'N Text, GlobalPort, and NLEX Road Warriors.
