the name fits

we were down 7 points with 1:46 left in the game. dad was taunting me, saying that UST was going to win. i didn't care. i was used to UP being the underdog. i turned back to my pc to surf the internet, peeking at times at the tv hoping that somehow UP wouldn't lose by much. or even win.

as UP went up by one point, i started screaming and cheering and forgot all about the internet. UST regained the lead as they sunk their own basket. then lo and behold! a three-point shot by UP! at this point, i was dancing around already as the clock went ticking by. a lone foul shot sealed the game and the win for the fighting maroons.

we may not be the best team in the UAAP, but we sure are one team that goes on fighting.
