Ateneo seeks to return to the winning track in UAAP Season 84 and earn a fifth straight finals appearance as it faces FEU in the Final Four at the Mall of Asia Arena on Wednesday, May 4.
The Blue Eagles missed out on a sweep of the elimination round and an outright finals berth following a heartbreaking 83-84 loss to UP on Sunday.
Despite seeing its 39-game winning streak come to a screeching halt, Ateneo still owns a twice-to-beat advantage after claiming the top seed and needs just one win to advance to the finals.
The winners of the last three UAAP titles, the Blue Eagles are touted as heavy favorites in the Final Four clash, but the Tamaraws are no pushovers as proven by their string of recent victories.
FEU won four of its last five games – including a stunner against No. 3 seed La Salle – to secure the last semifinals berth.
Tip off is 6 pm.
