NBA's First Victory!


By Tay Jia Chyi

It was a drizzly evening when the group in red arrived at ISV. Their jerseys have the word "BROTHERS" printed on them. They were the opposing team, members of the basketball team from Renaissance College, Johor Bahru.

The date of the friendly match was set to be on 12th of November, 2012 at the ISV basketball court but due to the "flooding" of the court, we had to change the venue to the basketball court just opposite of the NUMed campus. Eight Stage 1 members of the NUMed Basketball Association (NBA) were present to meet the equal number of challengers.

The match started at around 8.30pm and ended at 9.30pm. Our team was led by Captain Gregory Low who is also the president of NBA. It was a tough 5 vs 5 match but we emerged victorious. The score was 42 - 22. We were overjoyed with our first triumph as it is a promising sign that we may one day compete with other varsities all over Malaysia representing NUMed. Although we were ecstatic, we still promised ourselves to strive even harder so that we may make NUMed well known not only for its medical studies but also for its basketball team. We also sincerely hope that this win will allow us to receive unwavering support from the big family of NUMedians so that we can play even better for you in the future! NUMed Nukes!

President/Captain: Gregory Low Jia Hao
Vice president/Vice Captain: Syamlan Ali
Secretary/Social secretary: Tay Jia Chyi
