Feast of St. Ignatius |
July 31 is the feast day of Ateneo's patron saint, St. Ignatius de Loyola. It also marked another win for the Ateneo Blue Eagles and established a clean 5-0 slate. I caught the 2nd half of the game and it was really amazing. They were down 17 points at halftime but rebounded in the 2nd half and with only five minutes in the game, they grabbed the lead at 49-47. Adamson tried to retaliate and reclaimed the lead at 55-53. But the Blue Eagles knew that they owned the game now and, 4.3 seconds left, in a Gec Chia fashion, LA Tenorio quickly made a three-pointer that sealed the game. Ateneo won, 58-55.
What an amazing game! Even though Larry Fonacier wasn't there physically on court, he was there spiritually through the boys. Even though he's not playing, he will not be forgotten. This game, this season is for our captain, our main man, for Larry.
ONE BIG FIGHT! |
