Tiger's Make Thomasian Parents Proud


Tonight, the UST Growling Tigers made Thomasian parents proud at the Cuneta Astrodome and around the country, and here at Legazpi Towers 100 as the Tigers defeated the Ateneo Blue Eagles. The Tigers ended the first round of the 70th edition of UAAP with a landslide win over the Blue Eagles.

Jervy Cruz and rookie forward, Khasim Mirza, played big roles for this victory. Of course, it was still a total team effort under the leadership and mentorship of Coach Pido Jarencio.

Chief observes that Jarencio’s style is “hand-holding” the players. Not applying much pressure but rather letting the players enjoy the game. Even Dad Gabutina was swapping text messages with Chief as we were watching the game at home.

Originally named as the Glowing Goldies, the name had been changed starting during the 1992-93 season. The Seniors' teams have won 34 titles, the most in the UAAP.
