DLSU is 2nd again in UAAP Overall

Posted by GREENARCHERS.PH

For the second straight year, the valiant efforts of the different sports teams of DLSU resulted in a runner-up finish in the UAAP General Championship. And it seems that for the umpteenth time, the España Armada showed overall consistency in all sports disciplines in this annual athletic meet to romp off with the overall title. The perennial supremacy of the UST contingent has many wondering whether it’s the large student population or just excellent recruitment and training. Whatever it is, UST remains to be the yardstick of a great school athletic program.

Posted by GREENARCHERS.PH

The DLSU Animo Squad took one huge step in its quest to be among the cheer elite yesterday as they finished 4th in the National Cheerleading Championship (NCC). The team made significant strides from their 11th place finish last year as they put up a superb performance in this 19-team meet. They started their routine very strong and though some slip-ups happened, they managed to finish strong.

Having a word with OSD Director Edwin Reyes, he said that the squad has improved tremendously and though they did not make it in the top 3, finishing 4th place amongst all the top cheerleading teams in the country is already an outstanding feat itself. The Animo Squad are very happy with this victory and are determined to do better in the coming competitions they will participate in.

More photos of their performance can be found HERE

Congratulations!

The Top 5

1. Central Colleges of the Philippines
2. University of Cordillera
3. University of Perpetual Help
4. De La Salle University
5. Xavier University

Don en Rico’s Tender Juicy Championship

Posted by GREENARCHERS.PH

Don Allado and Rico Maierhofer, former Green Archer stars of different eras teamed up to help Purefoods win its nth PBA All-Filipino championship today via a sweep over the hardluck Alaska team. The two guys are born winners, having won multiple titles in the UAAP and the PBL.

Don, a two-time UAAP MVP and champion, was acquired by Purefoods last year and provided solid support to the more established big men in the team. Now on his 10th season as a pro, it seems that he has found a home at Purefoods.

For Rico, his pro career is just about to take-off. The second overall pick in this season’s draft, he is truly a prized catch. His overall intensity and play fits the team’s run-and-gun offense. He is currently one of the leaders for the top rookie award.

Such faith the coaching staff of Purefoods has with these two that they decided to let go of several key players during the off-season. It pays to have players who know what it takes to be a champion. Talk about instant results.

Lady Spikers’ got their post-game faces on

Posted by GREENARCHERS.PH

lady_spikers_thanksgiving

This pic says it all! The Lady Spikers have already put this recently concluded season behind them and will look forward to a more fruitful campaign next year.  This was taken during their thanksgiving dinner hours after last Saturday’s game.

The team will remain intact for next season as most of the seniors still have one year of eligibility left. This of course is assuming that they decide to return for another tour of duty. The future looks bright for our Lady Spikers and even though they were not able to defend the crown this year, they still gave us one helluva performance. And for that we thank you Ladies.

Enjoy this clip. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fz8c6FXyRys

Lady Booters are back as champions

The Lady Booters are back being the queens of UAAP football.

The team reclaimed the crown earlier today as they defeated UST 1-0.This time around, they made sure that there will be no repeat of that crushing setback they had against the very same time where they squandered a twice-to-beat advantage. It sure seemed like history would repeat itself as UST won the initial match of the series last Thursday. But despite a depleted line-up, the Lady Booters showed today that they were the hungrier team.

Thus ends the Lady Booters’ quest to once again regain supremacy after all the disappointments they went through for the past three years after scoring a 4-peat in 2006.

Kudos to Coach Hans Smit and the girls!
