Well, there’s a lot of first’s for this year’s competition.
For the first time since the start of UAAP Cheerdance Competition, UST failed to land a spot in the top three. I have to say that their performance was great, I love the Vishnu part of their performance (the multiple hands illusion ek ek) and their yellow and orange cloth, but the group made too many mistakes. Wait, they’re the ones who did the walking pyramid right? Sheesh, my memory’s failing me. I must watch Youtube videos later tonight.
Ateneo Blue Babble Battalion! Yay! Finally, after two years of ranking fourth! Their performace was great, simple but very effective. They made no mistakes either (as far as I know). And oh, I love their skirts. The flowy, soft material they used is perfect for their broadway inspired performance. I expected (and dreaded) to see a group perform to the tune of Nobody or Michael Jackson. Ateneo did Jackson - OMG A FLOATING MOONWALK! Nifty.
