My Team the UE Red Warriors!Now the UE Red Warriors has the final four slot in the UAAP, they have to step up and beat expected favorite Ateneo Blue Eagles. No fourth-ranked team has pulled off an upset over a top seed since the Final Four format was implemented in 1994.
“Even if history says otherwise, I think we still have a good chance,” said Warriors coach Dindo Pumaren. “I’m very happy with the way we’re playing in the last few games and we hope to bring it in the Final Four.” Ateneo has been successful against La Salle and UE so far this year, beating both teams twice in the elims. Ateneo closed it out with a 13-1 record, its only loss being dealt by FEU. But the Final Four is a different story.
“UE is a good team. I mean they were the favorites going into this league (season). We have respect for them. We have to break their pressure and get the ball inside,” Black added.
