7th MAPCU CRICKET CHAMPIONS- ASIA PACIFIC UNIVERSITY DEFENDS THE TITLE AGAIN FOR 2012

Finally!! The CHAMPIONS have done it again! They have won the title for the third consecutive time making a mark on the MAPCU Sports Carnival @ The University of Nottingham Malaysian Campus. There was a lot of Gangam Style at the end of the semi finals and the finals. Finally we thank all the supporters who were present their at the venue to support their team and what a joy at their face at the end of the day. APU got off to a shaky start by losing to INTI by more then 15runs, where INTI gave a target of 60+ Runs in their first match, but due to Limkokwing pulling out, APU had nothing to lose as they already qualified for Quarter Finals. They were lacking some balling as there were a lot of extras given but then they bounce back very strong and in the Quarter Finals they played against Monash University and gave them a target of 53 runs and then won by 3 runs as it was a close match. The semi final was played with HELP University where they looked helpless as the whole team was back in their dug out posting just 27 runs on the scorecard. This target was easily chased by APU openers without losing a wicket. The Final!!! A.P.U recalled its previous two years Championship and wanted to make sure that this one match can add on something more to their MAPCU History Book with some golden words. We had the match with INTI again (the same team with whom we lost our first match), but boys morale was high, team was very passionate about getting the victory. And then they restricted the INTI side to 30 odd runs and made sure that CHAMPIONS OF LAST TWO CONSECUTIVE YEARS REMAIN AS CHAMPIONS AND LEAVE THE VENUE WITH HIGH SPIRITS AND THE CROWN OF 7th MAPCU SPORTS CARNIVAL CRICKET CHAMPIONS. The pictures and the winning moments video will be uploaded soon. Once Again Congratulations to all APU Student and Staff on this memorable victory.
