The last decade saw Ateneo win countless championships and achieve unimaginable athletic feats. As The GUIDON Sports celebrates Ateneo sports history month, we look back at the moments that ultimately shaped the glorious events of the past decade. Part one of this three-part series looks into the improbable Season 74 Men’s Badminton crown, the dominant run of the Men’s Judo Team, Season 79’s redemption title run of the Baseball Team, and the Season 76 Cinderella championship of the Women’s Volleyball Team.

THE LAST 10 years have seen many Ateneo sports teams establish dynasties or emerge as new contenders for the gold in the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP). Beyond the shining trophies and victorious moments are stories of blood, sweat, and tears from every Blue and Lady Eagle. As Ateneo sports begins a new chapter, athletes and fans alike share in the lasting legacies that the Blue and White have left behind from the last 10 years.
