And speaking of breaking ties, this is Ateneo’s third win in five UAAP men’s football finals meetings with La Salle. The Blue Booters won in 1996, lost in 1997 and 1998, won in 2006, and won in this 2019 title game. When the Blue Booters won in 1996, that was the team that first came under the late Chris Monfort when the Ateneo Football School was establish in the mid-1980s. His father, the late Ed Ocampo, played for Ateneo and won football and basketball titles for the blue and white. In the UAAP, La Salle has had their moments, but for a while UST was king along with UP.
