It has been 3 years since the Green Archer’s roster was strengthened by a new batch of rookies. 3 years since the face of this team has changed. 3 years I have been screaming to death for the Green Archers during their games. The memory of those three years is about to shatter since I read from the newspaper about the controversy shadowing the team today.

The team said they are READY to give-up their 2004 championship crown and their 2005 1st runner-up trophy if the UAAP board decides it that way. It all might happen because of fielding an ineligible player for the last three years. I don’t know when they knew about it. It seemed they just knew it a few days ago. It still confuses me. I hope to get more answers soon.

Who is that unnamed ineligible player? Who is the real culprit behind this? 3 years of hard work by the team and cheers from fans might just be thrashed. I really don’t want that to happen. It hurts me to know about this.

But whatever happens, like what my friend Kath said, it will still remain in our hearts that they were the champions of 2004 and that every game that they fought were hardly fought. ANIMO LASALLE!

"We'll fight to keep our glory bright, and never shall we fail! Hail to thee our alma mater, HAIL, HAIL, HAIL!!!!!"

The Green Archers have fallen in the hands of the FEU Tamaraws in Game 2 of the finals series with a final score of 73-71. yes, the Archers were short again with 2 points. It may be a sad thought for some but for me I did not really feel very sad about this because I saw how great the Archers played in this game. I know they really gave their all. But the other team also gave their all and only one team should win. But the two close games that happened between them were proof that the Archers were a worthy opponent to the Tamaraws in the finals.

Thanks to the Green Archers for making my stay in DLSU a very fruitful one. I am really grateful that I was able to be part of the Lasallian community that cheered in their games in front of the TV or live. I will never forget shouting "GO LASALLE, GO GO LASALLE!", "REKTIKANO KEENA KEENA...", "Ooooooohhhoooooohhooohhh ANIMO LASALLE!", "D-L-S-U ARCHERS...", "SHOOT THAT BALL", "DEFENSE", "L-A-S-A-LL-E LASALLE RAH", "GREEN WHITE WHITE WHITE, GO FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT" and "GO LASALLE, GO LASALLE, GO LASALLE LASALLE LASALLE." Oooohhhh I'm gonna be miss being part of the undergrad crowd! But anyway I'll try my best to watch the games next season as an alumnus and I'll still cheer like I did before. My idols are still there anyway like Tang (if he suits up next season) and Casio!!! Wohoo!!!! Go guys next year!

Too bad I wasn't able to watch lots of games this season live...I was only able to watch the DLSU-FEU 1st game in the elimination round. Oh well that's okay...I really had a blast anyway last season when I was really able to watch all the finals games live and yipee we won that season! That was my fave season ever! Thanks Archers for letting my batch have a taste of the championship! It might have been a dynasty like your 4-peat before, but heck this championship you had last season was truly awesome anyway! I was glad to be part of it! Weeehee bonfire and lots of food during the Animo party! Hehe!

I'm gonna miss the UAAP...waaahhhh!! But like I said I'll still be cheering even at work...LOL! Wherever I'll be, and whetevr I'll be doing by next season, I'll still keep the ANIMO in me!!!!

ANIMO LASALLE!!!!!!!
