                    [Summary] => With qualifying tournaments over and done with by the end of next month, it seems that 13, lucky or otherwise, will be the official number of Filipino athletes seeing action in the Athens Olympics in August.

The draw was held in one of the high-rise buildings inside the athletes’ village with the Philippine coaching staff leaving the room confident but not necessarily happy.

"Dadaan tayo sa butas ng karayom. Pero bakbakan ito,"
