I was worried that UP wouldn't take home the trophy, even after winning game 1 of the finals. After all, in the previous two seasons, UP won the opening game both times, only to lose the next two and miss out on the championship. Thankfully, it didn't happen this time.
I still remember the days when UP would go winless in an entire season. Now, that all seems like a faded memory, with UP becoming a really strong contender in recent years. (Thanks to all the sponsors who provide much-needed funding for the team!) They made it to the the finals four seasons in a row - five times in the last six seasons that were played - and they won twice. It's amazing to think that it took 36 years for UP to win again after 1986 and now, we only had to wait two more years to be UAAP Men's Basketball championship again. Woohoo!
Congratulations UP Men's Basketball Team!
