FUELED BY the return of their main tournament, the Ateneo Women’s Table Tennis Team (AWTT) is ready to conquer the upcoming season with a full roster. The Blue Eagles will enter the season with a new mentor—Coach Almario Santos—who has been training the team onsite since July 2022. Team Captains Ana Ladisla Calvo, Jamie de Asis, and Kath Bulaqueña will lead the Blue Eagles who are eager to claim the AWTT title after settling for a silver finish last UAAP Season 82.

Aside from the onsite training, the AWTT has joined other competitions such as the United Batangas Table Tennis Club-Philippine Table Tennis Federation Challenge, where they notched the first runner-up title. Having seen strong finishes outside the UAAP, graduating seniors Bulaqueña and Calvo hope to close their collegiate journey with a championship and guide the team’s promising players—Anna Fabregar, Celeen Docto, and Rianna Bernardo—to continue the legacy of the AWTT.
