Eagles wrap up first round in fine fashion
Wow. Talk about pwnage.This will go down in history as one of the sweetest live ballgames I will ever see. It's like seeing Phoenix Suns basketball in Ateneo Blue Eagle bodies! Amazing!
My favorite moment of the night happened a few minutes after the final buzzer, though. As the spectators were filing out of the Araneta, lingering Ateneans were treated to a very thoughtful tribute courtesy of the UST band (also still lingering from right across the Big Dome). The said band played our all-too familiar drumbeat (yeah, the one that goes *jug! jug-jug-jugjug! jug-jug-jujug-jujujug! jug-jug-ju--GO! ATENEO!!! jug! jug-jug-jugjug...*), to which our Blue Babble Band responded with their rendition of the also-familiar "Go, USTe" beat. An amazing show of sportsmanship, if I may say so--especially from the UST side. Man, I love college ball!
GO, ATENEO! ONE BIG FIGHT!!!

I love it when that happens. I've seen it happen a few times between the Ateneo and La Salle squads. The first time was after the first cheering competition I was able to watch... whatever year that was, the first game after the cheering competition was AdMU-DLSU.
Despite being pretty much destroyed in the cheering competition, the two pep squads were all fired up for the impending battle the following week. As soon as the stadium was left empty with just the two opposing squads (and a few spectators) left in the stands, they went at it.
*boom*boom*boom*
"Go! 'Teneo!"
*boom*boom*boom*
"D! L-S! U!"
*boom*boom*boom*
Soon afterwards, a few Archers approached a few of the Babble(rs?). And to the surprise of the few of us still in the stands, they took turns doing each other's beat and cheer.
That was really and truly awesome.
