Even with the graduation of star runner and back-to-back MVP Jaime Mejia (Batch 2014), this year’s team captain Rafael de Peralta has high expectations for the team’s chances. He said that the team is young but it has a lot of potential.
Former UPIS TnF team member Renzo Domingo (Batch 2013) who is now one of the team’s coaches is confident about setting a goal for the team.
“Ang goal siguro ay mabeat yung mga personal bests nila (Maybe the goal is to beat their personal bests),” said Domingo.
The whole team is in high spirits and is in good shape upon entering the competition. They have been training hard everyday after class hours and have been participating in tune-up competitions to help them prepare for this year’s UAAP season.
“Makikita niyong handa kami (You will see that we are well prepared),” said de Peralta.
“Sasabak kami sa giyera nang may dala kaming bala (We will go into war with weapons locked and loaded),” said Paolo Bartilad, a member of the team.
As the team said, there is only one phrase that will describe their performance this season: “All out.”
UPIS students also have positive things to say about the chances of the TnF team.
“Babawiin nila yung nawala sa kanila (They will take back what they lost),” said Jediael Neri, a Grade 10 student.
“Sa tingin ko babawi sila (I think they will bounce back),” said Ella Santiaguel, a member of the UPIS Pep Squad.
