In the final match held on Sunday, February 8, 2026, at the Medan Basketball Arena, Jalan Kapten Sumarsono, SPARTAN UNPRI had to concede to Universitas Eka Prasetya with a final score of 61–72.

This achievement was reached after the team, coached by Jenny, S.E., M.M., successfully defeated the University of Muhammadiyah Sumatera Utara (UMSU) in the semifinals with a narrow score of 41–38.

The success of reaching the final was witnessed directly by the management ranks, including Team Manager Farrell and the Vice Coordinator of UNPRI Creative (UC), Haposan Lumbantoruan, S.Pd., M.Psi. Intensive support from the Office of the Vice Rector III for Student Affairs became the key factor that kept the team competitive throughout the tournament until the final round.
