Maroons Look to Clinch Top Seed as First Round Nears Completion

OCTOBER 19, 2022 - The UP Fighting Maroons’ title defense is off to a tremendous start. As the first round of the tournament nears its close, they are tied with the NU Bulldogs for the top seed, each team having 5 wins and 1 loss. Suffice it to say, UP’s season so far has been nothing short of thrilling, so let’s turn back the clock and review some of the matches that led to the team’s success.

Their season debut against the De La Salle Green Archers on October 1 was an action-packed opening game as the Archers came out with their guns– or bows, blazing. Despite trailing in all but one quarter, the defending champs of Diliman did not falter as Mythical 5 big man Carl Tamayo, this game’s star, put up a monstrous 18-point 19-rebound performance capped by some big shots down the stretch to secure the win. Also with a commendable performance was Terrence Fortea who was handed the keys to starting point guard in JD Cagulangan’s absence. Fortea led the game in assists with 9 while also cashing in 15 points and 5 boards. La Salle’s fast-paced playstyle led by Schonny Winston caught the Maroons off guard, but a few defensive adjustments from Coach Goldwin Monteverde allowed UP to recover and secure the win 72-69.

UP’s succeeding game against the Adamson Falcons on October 5 was won in comeback fashion as well, as the Maroons had the last laugh despite trailing by double digits. Similar to La Salle, the Falcons’ offense in the first half was firing on all cylinders, and they entered halftime with a 16-point lead. Fortunately, the never-say-die attitude of UP was not shaken, and they quickly recovered in the third to cut the lead to 4. The Maroons were about to close out the game with a 3-point lead, but a questionable foul called on James Spencer led to free throws for the Falcons, which forced overtime. Nevertheless, UP’s grace-under-pressure mantra prevailed, and they dominated the overtime period with 13 points despite the absence of Carl Tamayo late in this game. Zavier Lucero’s 15 points, 7 boards, and 4 assists led him to be named player of the game in this 87-78 overtime victory.

Next was their match against FEU on October 8 which extended their win streak to 3 with a 73-67 victory. UP controlled the early game and slowly built up a lead of 14 in the first. The Tamaraws then answered back in the second and third to somewhat even the odds and decrease the deficit, but UP’s experience in crunch time gave them the edge in the fourth. Carl Tamayo by himself outscored the 7 points that FEU put up in the final quarter, and UP ended the game with 4 of their players scoring double digits. The Maroons’ defense once again shined bright as the Tamaraws shot a measly 5-of-27 from long range. Terrence Fortea, who put up a career-performance of 17 with 5 treys was this games’ star, and he was also named UAAP 85’s first player of the week thanks to his impressive consistency and his pivotal role in UP’s win streak as their starting point guard.

Possibly the most anticipated game of the first round, UP emerged victorious in the finals rematch against the Ateneo Blue Eagles with a 76-71 overtime win on October 16. The initial quarters were riddled with lead changes and deadlocks, and no team was able to pull away because their opponent immediately answered back. Halfway into the fourth, UP went on a run which extended their lead to 8 nearing the end of the quarter. However, Ateneo showed no quit, and quick baskets from Padrigao and Ildefonso cut the deficit and closed regulation at 64-64, forcing overtime. The overtime period was chock-full of free throws, which UP successfully capitalized on. Padrigao hit a three with 30 seconds left on the clock to make it a one-possession game, but trips to the line by Tamayo and Diouf iced the match with a 5-point victory. Tamayo’s impressive tally of 20, 13, and 3 dimes was enough for him to be named player of the game. JD Cagulangan also made his season return in this game, and his impact was immediately felt thanks to his 7 points, 7 boards, 5 assists, and 4 steals. The trio of Diouf, Lucero, and Spencer all put up double digit points each to help remind everyone who the true Kings of Katipunan are.

Finally, the back-to-back victory against UE marked the 5-win tally for UP with a score of 84-77. The Maroons hit the ground running and quickly secured a 9-point lead in the first. UE did however push back and catch up to keep the game close all throughout the second and third thanks to runs from Payawal and Paranada who finished the game with 21 and 20, respectively. In the fourth, the second unit of UP shined thanks to quick buckets and defensive plays from Calimag, Abadiano, and Gonzales. A three-point play from Lucero extended UP’s lead to 10 with just under a minute left. UE was able to cut down the lead to 4 thanks to back-to-back threes, but their remaining efforts were futile and the Maroons sealed the game with free throws from Harold Alarcon. Terrence Fortea with 13 was named the game’s star, but the true key to victory was UP’s bench depth. 12 of their 13-man roster contributed points to the tally, and second-unit players like Abadiano and Gonzales had great performances as well. Unfortunately, Carl Tamayo tweaked his ankle in the last minute of the game and exited the floor clutching his foot. His recovery timetable is unknown.

UP looks to cap off their first round with a victory over the UST Growling Tigers on October 22 to push their record to 6-1. Doing so would secure a top seed upon entering the second round of the tournament, although Carl Tamayo is questionable for this game. With UP’s stellar performance despite missing JD Cagulangan for a few games, and the absence of CJ Cansino for the season, one thing is for sure: The defending champs are back, and they are the team to beat. //by Reiñell Fajardo

Goodbye 2022

Less than 4 hours and 2022 is over.

Honestly, looking back at this year, there’s really nothing much to say about 2022. The major changes that happened was mainly work related. The pandemic wasn’t over but people are started to live with it. At work, we’re almost back to normal with only one day of WFH (which I hope stays). A number of my officemates resigned and a couple of new officemates.

Elections here in the country took place this year. The results were horrendous and I initially wanted to go out of this country because of it. Those feelings have died down but that doesn’t change the fact that I’m still living in a shit country. We may discuss all the systemic failures of the education system and government and why those results happened in the first place, but I stand by my point that at some point people are accountable for their own actions. That elections just proved that at this point, it’s every man for himself.

As for my personal life, it’s nothing that grand. Basically half the year was me recovering from that horrendous ending of 2021, which I’d say I have recovered. This year, I got to finally meet in person the two new friends my podcast team had met through our podcast. One of my orgmate in college became my officemate. Towards the end of the year, I also got closer with another orgmate in college as she’s also working and staying near my area. If ever you’re reading this, shout out to you as I still appreciate that gift you gave me.

I technically learned how to drive this year too but I haven’t been the family driver since then. I still consider it as a small achievement though.

Stayed consistent with my workout which is nice.

I almost forgot but the happiest moment of 2022 for me was witnessing live the championship of the UP MBT at UAAP Season 84. It was like witnessing a movie or anime with how UP won that title. They lost in the finals the following season but no one’s gonna take away that memory from me. That shot by JD Cagulangan looked like some scripted shit.

Another big event that I almost forgot is that our new house was finished early this year. Thanks to my parents since they’re the one who spent for it. It’s a MASSIVE improvement from our old house.

So I think that’s it for 2022. Survived it.

I would like to thank God for letting me survive the year. I would like to thank my parents and all my friends who stayed with me. I love ya’ll.

Well as for 2023...

Let me have a mini-flashback earlier this week. We were just two in the office on the last work day and she was asking me some deep questions regarding my mental health.

Some questions here and there and then she hit me with the question, “What makes you happy?”

I was itching to answer that she makes me happy, because it’s true. She makes me happy and I’m happy when we’re together. For some reason though, I wasn’t able to answer the question. In hindsight, I actually think it’s better that I didn’t answer that because I don’t want her to think that she’s my source of happiness and that my world revolves around her because that’s not the case. I just answered in jest that winning the lottery would make me happy (Which funnily enough, I bought some tickets yesterday since the prize was swelling up because no one has been winning it for a long time. Two people won yesterday. I was not one of them. F.) If my memory serves me right, I wasn’t able to answer her properly. I just added to my answer the Houston Rockets, which was true. I like when they win. I think she followed it up with the questions about my plans for next year that will make me happy, or at least, contribute to my happiness.

Until now I have been thinking about that question. What makes me happy? It’s not that I’m sad all the time. I do get sad a lot of times but it’s a lie if I said I live a sad life. I do want some things to happen, though maybe most of them is outside my control. I do want her, but I don’t control her feelings for me. I want the Rockets, and all my other teams to win a championship, but I don’t control them. I do want to win the lottery, but that’s pure luck.

So what about the other things? I guess I just need to learn how to turn my satisfaction into happiness. That’s where I am right now. I am satisfied. Work is fine. Money’s not a problem. We have a great home. I have a great friends. My health is fine. Working out has been consistent. I can buy stuff I want.

I am contented at worst and that should make me happy.

Thinking about it deeper, memories and experiences are what makes me happy. Memories and experiences with my friends and people special to me, my achievements, events on things that I care about. Those are the things that makes my heart flutter.

I told myself I won’t be expecting or wishing for anything this new year but that would be hypocritical of me because I know damn too well that myself can’t do that.

I guess I just pray that God grants me that wishes of my heart this year, unlikely as they may be. May I get to make more memories and experiences that will make me happy.

That’s a tough act to do, but as you all know I am

Hopelessly hopeful
