Two Go-To Girls
Cristina de los Reyes [UP]
UAAP Season 74's Rookie of the Year
Trivia - As a matter of fact, way back Feb 16 of 2009 - I actually witnessed AND captured in still images ->Cristina's TWO goals vs Guam [Phil-2 Guam-1] [friendly match] - A Knack of scoring in pairs ??? You Tell me.
Rookie Aina Martin , on the other hand led the Lady Eagles to victory over the UP Lady Booters {[2-0] during their Dec. 2 match.} by converting two goals in the last five minutes of the match.
During the ADM-DLS match, Aina, [she led by example again] - scored in the First Half. Junior Cecille Dayrit then sealed the fate of DLSU by adding another goal in the 2nd half [Final ADM-2 DLS-0]
So, after Ateneo's two wins and two draws [entering 2013], the young recruit from [Cebu?] has already accumulated a total of 3 goals to her stat sheet. Not bad for a rookie? Right ?? Will there be another rookie in the Women's Division who might threaten Martin's chances of winning the RoY Award ??

Two Go-To Girls
UAAP Season 74's Rookie of the Year
Last year, rookie Cristina de los Reyes [fr DLS Zobel] led the UP Lady Maroons to victory [vs the ADM Lady Eagles and vs the FEU Lady Tams] twice by scoring two goals on both won elimenation round games [Season 74]. As of late, Cristina also played a pivotal role in UP winning the Women's Football Gold at the recent UniGames in Bacolod, held last November.
Come the First Half of the Ateneo-UP Women's football Match [Dec.1, Season 75] I was hoping to see more of this promising lady athlete. To my surprise she didn't play [The rookie of the year not being given minutes at all in a half ?? I speculated] at all.
So, during the break I proceeded to the UP dug out to look for her. I got to actually converse with Cristina and found out, first hand, that she quit the UP Team [sometime after their UNI Games stint in Bacolod] in order to concentrate on her academics. A Rookie of the Year recipient quitting on her sophomore year in order to give priority to her acads ! - That doesn't happen often.
She did eventually "disappoint" a lot of people [myself included] with her very personal decision to leave the team. As far as goals/priorities are concerned - It only proves that this young girl IS consistently willing to make the necessary sacrifices to achieve them.
