Ateneo’s destiny is now out of their control following a loss to La Salle in their last elimination game on Saturday.
With a 7-7 record, Ateneo must await the outcome of the UE Red Warriors-Adamson Soaring Falcons match on Sunday.
Adamson, with a 6-7 record, aims to equal Ateneo, forcing a playoff for the last Final Four spot.
Blue Eagles head coach Tab Baldwin expressed his support for UE, hoping they can thwart Adamson’s Final Four aspirations.
“I hope we get in. That’s the biggest thing. I’m a big Jack Santiago fan right now and I’m gonna go home, put my red underwear on, and cheer for the Red Warriors until the game is over,” Baldwin told reporters after their game against La Salle.
However, the veteran mentor respects Adamson as a tough team to beat.
“We’ll see how it plays out. Adamson’s really tough we all know that. They’re one of the tough teams to contend with,” he added.
While the Warriors have been eliminated from playoff contention, they are determined to conclude Season 86 on a positive note.
