That little celebration is lit. Tumanggi akong magpahatid kay Jared dahil nakainom siya. Lorrie drive the two back. Zach left his car at Jared's house.

The days of my college life went on providing me fun and exciting experiences. Nung Friday dumayo na ulit kami dahil district 14 ang kalaban namin. We faced Mydorian Mad Dolls. An all girls school. I was having thoughts about it because some part of the game really described them as mad. Compared to our first two games, girls of Mydorian are sassy and a little aggressive. Naka girian nina Tiana ang dalawa sa mga ito nung huling minutes ng 4'th quarter. Fortunately maikling sagutan lang naman at walang na technical.

Its just about intentional foul against the mad dolls. Ale was hit on her rib at hindi agad nakatayo nung bumagsak sila. Then nagpa sub si Ale dahil masakit daw.

Tiana came to the rescue and exchange words with the girl who elbowed Ale. Inawat namin sila at pinaupo na ni coach si Tiana with the remaining minutes. Glad to say, nanalo pa rin naman.

64-52 and best player is Jamie. Hooray !! Our best playmaker.

Balik-aral kami nung sabado and the cycle repeats itself. Sumunod na kinalaban namin dito sa district 24 sports arena is from district 1 Fielbarth Raging Cyclones.

Medyo challenging dahil katulad namin tong regular school din. And they got crowd too.

Dikit ang laban namin dito at nagtapos ang laro ng 59-55. Buti na lang we got shooters. Tiana saves us by her three dahil kung hindi na shoot yun alanganin kami.

We got more upcoming games and just like us wala pa ring talo ang men's basketball ng DSU. Naka anim na laro na sila Anthony at so far so good ang lagay ng both basketball team ng DSU.

Meanwhile sa kapitbahay naming district ay ganun din. Lanercost has finally introduced themselves. 6 years ng nasa Lanercost ang championship ng Basketball while 3 years naman yung football. Then nasa top ranks din ang Lanercost sa ilang sports category like hockey, golf, soccer, tennis, billiards and motocross.

DSU is on top list too at nakikipag palitan ng ranks among Lanercost, Westington, Hartlepool and Penvrance.

Hindi ko na napanuod pa ng live ang mga laro ni Jared due to my schedules and of course my studies. I catch replays of their games on the internet if I got time and believe me, I havent seen half of Jared's talent at all. Bilib na bilib akong pinanood ang mga previous games nila at talagang tinatambakan ng Lanercost ang kalaban nila. Laging double figures ang lamang. Akala mo talaga hindi marunong maawa.

Kung tambak, tambak talaga. Wala kaming pakialam. Parang ganun ba.

Jared surprised me as his game got better and better. Or maybe one game isnt enough to show what he's got. He's playing so good and he became the face of Lanercost basketball as early as his rookie year. He had such an exceptional talent.

Doing crossovers, breaking ankles, precise shots and buzzer beaters. Halatang halata na master na niya ang basketball. He's been playing it since high school. Dominating the game and receiving praises among the coaches and talent scouts.

Pero pagdating sa social media, lumala ng lumala ang trashtalking at pang ba bash sa kanila. Yes, hindi lang si Jared ang nakakaranas ng mga ganitong cyber bullying and offensive feedbacks. Many athletes are experiencing the same. Sa ibat-ibang mga school din. Pero si Jared ang pinaka madalas sa mga rumor sites na ito.

Recently may lumabas ding article kina Zach at ang Lanercost football team.

young CEO and quarterback, Zachary Henderson of the Lanercost Knights, having words with Mertiscire bench after collision and eventually called out for the game.
