Ateneo de Manila is one of the top universities in the Philippines with regards to their academic standards and athletic achievements. The Ateneo baseball program has won the UAAP (Philippine collegiate national championship) 3 out of the 4 last years. In addition, the university has also finished 1st during the 2014 Hong Kong Baseball Tournament. Despite being a young team, this group is expected to perform at a high level. Last year’s team broke Ateneo’s regular season record, with a standing of 9 wins and 1 loss, but fell short of winning the championship. Their goal this year is to regain the collegiate title and win the Hong Kong tournament once again. Led by coaches Randy Dizer, Emerson Barandoc, and Luke Bernardo, their team is set to regain their winning streak.
