The Ateneo de Manila University Blue Eagles soared to its fifth consecutive UAAP title on October 11, after it defeated the University of Santo Tomas Growling Tigers 65-62 during Game 2 of the best-in-three finals series. Kiefer Ravena and Greg Slaughter teamed up to score 15 of the Blue Eagles’ 18 points in the final period as the Katipunan-based squad fended off a late rally by the erratic Growling Tigers. “This one was tough,” retiring coach Norman Black shared after the game. “We really had to make big plays down the stretch to win.” The Eagles’ championship is a fitting goodbye to Black, who is leaving Ateneo to return to coaching professionally. Black’s 8-year-stay at the Ateneo makes him the longest tenured coach in the school’s history.
