I was doing this piece on a UAAP playing day in order to beat my deadline.
The Sampaloc boys have already defeated UP but surrendered to Ateneo earlier for its only loss after six assignments. Coach Jeff Napa methodically exploited the shiftiness and height of his import against DLSU’s big men.Sadly, DLSU absorbed its third loss for a 3-3 card that somewhat dampened its overall chances for a Final four slot. The Taft ave.-based ballclub cannot afford to take another step backward in its hungry quest for a championship comeback.
UP has the lighter assignment. Without the least disparaging the pride that UE has worn for decades, I would give the Diliman boys a thumbs up.Fortunes change quickly and suddenly. My old, worn out crystal ball has not been as reliable as that of Madam Auring lately.
