UAAP Season 71: Ateneo Beats UE, 64-58

Three hours before the Ateneo-UE games at the Philsports Arena, I had a photo shot with who would turn out to be today’s Best Player of the Game—Rabah al-Hussaini. Today he scored 18 points, and grabbed 17 rebounds.

It was one of the best games so far this season. On half time, UE grabbed the lead [...]

by Vince

It was a battle for the skies as the Adamson Soaring Falcons faced the Ateneo Blue Eagles on the court at 4pm this afternoon. The Blue Eagles have been dominating the skies since 1997, leaving no space for the other blue bird. Year 1997 was the last time the Soaring Falcons beat the Ateneo [...]

Lantern Parade in UP–Fun time with my little one

Last year my youngest son Alan Jr and I looked forward to the Lantern Parade in UP. We have lived in the vicinity, in Teachers’ Village, for the past many years but have never bothered to watch the spectacle. We were not able to watch, though—the parade didn’t push through because of the protest that [...]

WIN or LOSE — Congratulations, DLSU!

DLSU won today’s games, with a score of 60 for ADMU and 65 for DLSU. It was a well-played game. I just felt that ADMU players has been over-worked the past 2 weeks—what with playing 3 games over 7 days (Sunday against UST, Thursday againstDLSU and another Sunday against DLSU).

We were at the Araneta, wildly [...]

UAAP: Ateneo Wins!!!

It must have been a sign—Krispy Kreme had 1 box of Final Four donuts—but only the BLUE ones delivered to our house in the 3rd quarter of the ADMU-DLSU game, when DLSU was winning by 5 points. Monica brought them inside the house and said, “We’re gonna WIN!” She then proceeded to the salon for [...]

UAAP: An all out WAR between ADMU and DLSU on 27 September 2007

24 hours before the toss, I extend my hand in friendship to you all, DLSU fans. Because tomorrow, it will be WAR! An all out WAR! While ADMU wants to live another game, DLSU, who has the twice to beat advantage, just wants to finish it in one game and avoid meeting ADMU one more [...]

UAAP Season 70: Ateneo BEATS UST!

Until now, I am speechless—I am happy. I don’t know what to say. Prior to leaving the house at 2 pm for the Araneta, we had an advanced celebration, called WIN or LOSE. We even had a cake to cap the occassion.
Araneta was tense, it was not packed to its seams though, as in [...]

UAAP Season 70: ADMU vs DLSU (DLSU Wins by 1)

UPDATE: 23 Sept 2007 (Sunday) at 3 pm: UST vs ADMU at the Araneta

Today’s game was another heart-stopping, high energy game—it was anybody’s game until the dying seconds of the game when ADMU scored 2 instead of a 3-pointer which could have tied the score.
Score: ADMU-69/DLSU-70
Kudos to both teams for a game well fought. [...]
