THE CROWN is back with the Blue Eagles, and fans couldn’t be more over the moon.
Ateneo conquered defending champions UP, 75-68, striking back with a vengeance seven months after they lost to their rivals across the street. Ange Kouame and Forthsky Padrigao provided the wind beneath the Eagles’ wings, keeping them aloft against the scrappy Maroons.
Twitter glowed blue in the trending charts, with “Ateneo”, “Padrigao”, “Andrade”, “Congrats ADMU”, “Coach Tab,” “Dave”, and more on the leaderboards. UP, of course, was not to be outdone, with tweets coming hot and fast about “Spencer”, “UPFight”, and more also trending.
