Returning anew to his alma mater, head coach Willie Miller, who succeeded former Knights mentor Allen Ricardo, is ready to take over the Squires who aim to get valuable lessons against top tier teams in the country. “Magiging masaya ‘to. ‘Di ko naman pine-pressure ‘tong mga players ko. Ang importanta they can gain experience tyaka sa practice nakikita ko naman paonti-onti paayos na nang paayos,” added Miller, who was an NCAA Rookie of the Year winner for Letran way back in 1995.
“I belong to the generation wherein Coach Ato Badolato was my mentor and looking at what coach Atom has done for a lot of young players in the last four decades. I'd like to follow and emulate what he has done for a lot of eventual future professional players,” said Magsanoc.
