I&#x27;m glad we came out with the win,&quot; he added.Still, this statement win means nothing if Adamson can&#x27;t follow it up.The Falcons are well aware of that.&quot;This is the best Ateneo team I&#x27;ve ever seen. In terms of depth they are 3-4 players deep,&quot; head coach Franz Pumaren said of the Blue Eagles.&quot;It&#x27;s so hard to beat Ateneo, I&#x27;ll tell you. Imagine first game ganito na ka-stressful. But we still have to prove ourselves. Winning one game over Ateneo does not make us a championship team,&quot; he added.<div>This story was originally published on the <a href="https://sports.abs-cbn.com/uaap/news/2018/09/09/ahanmisi-ateneo-we-started-scouting-months-ago-46712">ABS-CBN Sports website</a>.</div>
