Blue Versus Green

The battle is on for that highly coveted Championship Title and trophy of the UAAP Season 71 Basketball! ( And my alma mater is not even at the top 4! - Growls)


Who will win this season?


Take your pick Ladies and Gentlemen!


I was just watching the game earlier before I sat down and started my blog.

Man, it was intense. The game was so intense! As all may know, the De La Salle and Ateneo rivalry has been in place since both team played at the NCAA. And up to today, it never faded. Every time these two teams meet in a basketball match, its such a big deal. Ask their alumnus.

About the game.

The players of the Eagles were on fire headed by the Al-Hussaini who took home 31 points and 9 rebounds in this game! Nonoy Baclao ( who has 5 or 6 blocks! )was hot as Jai Reyes, Ryan Buenafe and Eric Salamat who stacked point against the Archers. The Team Captain-Chris Tiu was more of a support on this game.

The La Salle Team was on track until the second half, I observed that the team basically moved individually. Casio, Maierhoffer, Mangahas and Malabes are more the notable fighters of the game. Eventually, these plays took its toll on the team.

Ateneo topped the first game, with an 8-point lead against La Salle. The scores were 69 for Ateneo and 61 for La Salle.

Whew. Now, I'm off to wait for the next game. I'm on the look out who will be the champion this year.
