'GONE TOO SOON' 💔🕊️

Chukwuemeka Divine Adili (2004–2026) was a 21-year-old Nigerian student-athlete in Philippines who played as a 6'10" center for the Ateneo de Manila University Blue Eagles in the UAAP. Before joining Ateneo, he played for New Era University.

Tragically, he and teammate Rene Baterbonia lost their lives on June 8, 2026, after drowning during an out-of-town team-building activity in Dipaculao, Aurora.

Though their journeys were cut short, their legacy lives on through the people they inspired, the sport they loved, and the communities that will forever remember them.
