‘I promise you that they will add something to our program that we currently don’t have. They will give us that Cebuano toughness,’ says Ateneo head coach Tab Baldwin of new recruits Raffy Celis and Michael Asoro.
MANILA, Philippines – The Ateneo Blue Eagles strengthened their bid for back-to-back titles in the UAAP men’s basketball tournament after securing the commitment of Sacred Heart School-Ateneo de Cebu standouts Raffy Celis and Michael Asoro.
“I promise you that they will add something to our program that we currently don’t have. They will give us that Cebuano toughness,” said Baldwin of the duo of Celis and Asoro. He averaged 17.3 points, 10 rebounds, 1.8 assists, and 1 steal to earn a Mythical Team selection in the recently concluded tournament.
Both Celis and Asoro also suited up in the NBTC All-Star Game alongside their Magis Eagles teammate Jared Bahay, who recently committed to the UP Fighting Maroons.
