Thank you for reading my blog!

like to greet you Advance Merry Christmas! And my birthday is coming, so I have
an incoming giveaway to treat my followers and readers, hope all of you would
be able to join, it’s coming this October!
Back to my blog post, it’s been a while
since I wrote about sports story and I am so hyper that my favourite team, the
FEU Tamaraws won in huge margin against the ADMU Blue Eagles. I want to share
to all of you basketball and UAAP fans my first impression on their win. Yeah,
I watch it from beginning to end and I must say I am a great home based
cheerer.
Here are my Impressions from FEU’s last win
They Have Couple of Players that Step Up. (Tolomia,
Pogoy, Belo, Jose and Escoto)
In the first minutes of first quarter, the
game was head to head, both teams are exchanging baskets. But Tamaraws pulled
away after Mike Tolomia baskets. Then they did not look back. They have couple
of players that scored in double figures. Though I don’t know the exact
numbers, the Tamaraws have more than assist against the Eagles that lead to
uncontested shots.They have a total of 17 assists. They move the ball well and
look for the open man. This resulted to four players with double figures. Pogoy
led the way with career high 19 points followed by Tolomia with 17 and Belo and
Jose with 16 points. Tolomia made a couple of highlight plays and Belo had a
dunk to open the third quarter. Escoto stepped up in defense with couple of
rejections in the basket. FEU Tamaraws play as team and they win with large
margin, 88-64.
They Dominate the Boards
As a lot of sportscaster says, the team
that dominates the board wins the game.
FEU Tamaraws limit the Blue Eagles with one touch to the basket. They
dominate the rebound. Escoto, Pogoy, Jose and Belo battled for loose balls
which lead to fast break and uncontested shoots. The young big men of ADMU were
not able to keep up with the veterans of FEU. FEU was good in boxing out.
FEU have Deep Bench
I have read in Rappler’s preview that FEU
focused in deepening their bench this season. They have seven (7) rookies in
their line up. I saw one of their rookies, the Nigerian recruit Orizu played at
center position take action. I had noticed that Coach Nash used a lot of
players in his rotation. As a result, his players are all fresh when playing.
One example I notice is Tolomia is playing in first quarter, then he would rest
in the second quarter and Pogoy will come to play.
I believe, FEU Tamaraws are the team to
beat this season given their hunger for the crown. With their depth and
experience as their battle tested formula. As coach Nash Racela would
emphasize, they don’t want to be arrogant in assuming they are a contender but
they will act as a Tamaraw, once provoked, they will keep on fighting.
