Table Tennis
The Green Paddlers finished the first round of eliminations in the UAAP Season 76 table tennis tournament with a 6-1 record, possibly getting the top spot due to better match points won even if it ends up tying either UE or FEU (both teams are still playing as of the moment). The lone loss came to the hands of FEU yesterday, 3-2.
The Lady Paddlers on the other hand swept the first round of eliminations with a 6-0 record. They also swept the eliminations last season (12-0) en route to a championship.
