Schedule of Games—CHAMPIONSHIPS (Best of 3 Series)

4:00 pm ADMU vs DLSU
The Araneta Coliseum was a motley of colors—blue and yellow on one side and green and red on the other. This was because the FEU Tamaraws played against the DLSU Green Archers at 2 pm, and the ADMU Blue Eagles against the UE Red Warriors at 4 pm, for their respective games—ADMU and DLSU both had the twice to beat advantage to compete for the championships. As early as 1 pm however, fans of the ADMU Blue Eagles and UE Red Warriors fans were already falling in line to gain entry to the Araneta to get choice seats. Only the remaining few general admission tickets and SRO upper A tickets were sold by Ticketnet by games’ opening.
By 4 pm, the motley crowd turned to a sea of red on one side, and a sea of blue on the other, though there were more blues than reds.
DLSU vs FEU. The FEU Tamaraws almost made it for another game with DLSU Green Archers. They were leading most of the time, with the biggest lead of about 9 points. There were ties in the 4th quarter, but in the last few minutes, FEU Tamaraws fumbled, missing 2-point shots and 2 free throws by Baracael which would have tied the game in the last few seconds—which could have evened the scores and called for an extension. DLSU won by 5 points (DLSU-67/UE-62), making them a step away from the Championships.
ADMU vs UE. UE Red Warriors were leading by 7 points in the first few minutes of the 1st quarter, but ADMU Blue Eagles, with Jai leading, rallied 5 minutes into the first quarter. There was no stopping the ADMU Blue Eagles since then, with ADMU leading by as much as 28 points (ADMU-56/UE-28). The ADMU Blue Eagles won, (ADMU-70/UE-50), making them a step away from the Championships.
With ADMU and DLSU winning the games, and them having a 2x to beat advantage, it is now official: ADMU Blue Eagles will meet DLSU Green Archers on Sunday, 21 September and Thursday, 25 September at 4 pm for the CHAMPIONSHIPS (best of 3 series).
If statistics (gathered bt UBelt.com) were to be the basis for the Championships, it’s obvious which team will win:
Some H2H stats (totals in two games) worth pointing out:
Free throws: ADMU - 41/52; DLSU - 19/39.
Fouls: ADMU - 39; DLSU - 49
Blocks: ADMU - 14; DLSU - 5
3pt fgs: ADMU - 7/23; DLSU - 9/41

Oh Wind(Poems from the Heart by D. Racoma)
the wind I can’t see but I can feel it it is there, I am sure caressing my face almost a kiss enveloping my whole being a warm embrace making me feel alive glow, delight, smile a pleasant rendezvouz
it blows intensely at times and I am swept away bringing me to heights never imagined I forget myself take me, please do, I plead then i go with the flow of the wind to the south, to the north to the east, to the west a dizzying union with the wind, my wind
wake me up, when it becomes too much more than what I can handle and bring me back to earth where I truly belong my feet firmly on the ground be the wind that gently blows the wind that I can feel always there, even if I can’t see always there, never to go away to caress my face, envelop my whole being -

Oh no! Epic rivalry yet again?
I guess Ateneo will win it all this time.
Sexy Mom: Yes, Alex, yes, yes!
Oh boy! With the current state the two teams are in, Sunday’s match would be one for the history books!
Sexy Mom: yes, Jhay. even if you are with the greens now, i know where your heart is with.
Interesting. I guess Ateneo might be winning again?

Sexy Mom: yours is a guess, Kyels, mine is more than a guess, lol.

Sexy Mom: thanks, Levi, when I find out, I will get back to you.
help! where can i find tickets for sunday’s DLSU-ADMU game? i want that for my bf’s bday….
Sexy Mom: That will be the greatest challenge now. Call ADMU’s alumni office and find out when they will be opening ticket sales—at the Blue Eagles Gym. Chances are, only gen ad tickets will be available. My sons are yet to scout from their contacts. Good luck!
