Hoops for Hope

Unity, skills, and coordination in pursuing one goal.

Basketball is the most loved team sport here in our country. It does not only promote camaraderie among the players, but it also is an avenue for fun and enjoyment. Last Thursday night, July 5, 2018, the faculty and the students took part in the basketball tournament held at the MVC covered court conducted by the Guidance and Counseling Center in accordance with the week-long emphasis of Drug Awareness and Prevention.

There were 7 playing teams who participated in the said event, from which 4 were from the men’s category namely Team Camarada, Team Master Guide, Team Wawa and the team of the Male Faculty. The remaining 3 teams were from the women’s category, these are the Team Commuters, Team from the BSN and BSMT freshmen and the team of the Female Faculty. Though the tournament’s aim was just for everyone to have fun and to enjoy, still all the participating teams have exhibited great playing skills and teamwork inside the court. It has been a scorching game despite the cold weather. Activities like this are a great avenue for students and faculty to bond and to connect the gap that separates us.
