‘Officially done’ with college studies, Thirdy Ravena to take master’s degree

MANILA, Philippines—Thirdy Ravena has garnered a long list of accolades throughout his young basketball career, having won two UAAP championships and a pair of Finals MVP awards for the Ateneo Blue Eagles.

His latest achievement, however, shows that the do-it-all forward can also get it done off the court.

The 22-year-old Ravena has come a long way after he was forced to sit out UAAP Season 78 due to academic deficiencies.

Ravena, who studied AB Interdisciplinary Studies with Communications and Information Design as tracks, said he plans to take a master’s degree in either communication or management.
