Freshman From the Department of Geoscience wins Ulssa 2018 Marathon

ULSSA 2018 MARATHON REPORT


To those who thought they had gotten enough from the indoor games that held less than 24 hours ago, the Faculty sport secretary Mr Arnold Effor gave them another reason to hold on to their breath.

The ULSSA marathon kicked off this morning at exactly 8am having just 23 contestants in participation.
We also had officials positioned at strategic points around the route to be covered by these athletes. The distance covered by these athletes was nothing short of the faculty as their start point, making a complete turn around the school campus and they had to do this twice in order to emerge champion.

Of these 23, few couldn't complete the first lap and some finished both laps but the competition only cared about the winner and its runner-up.

We were all amazed as we had a female participant in the name of Aloba Oyinlola of the department of Botany, the 200 level student was the only registered female participant in this marathon exercise and not only did she finish both laps, she also did so in grand style, surpassing most of her male counterparts.

Oywateru Oluwaseun, a 100 level student of the department of Geosciences finished the marathon in first place with Ayobami Emmanuel, a 200 level student of the department of Chemistry science coming as the runner-up.

UNILAG Gets Nod To Host 26th NUGA Games

There are strong indications that University of Lagos (UNILAG) may have gotten the nod to stage the 26th edition of the Nigeria University Games (NUGA) in 2019.

We learnt on Thursday that UNILAG beat University of Jos (UNIJOS) to the hosting of the games.

The naming of the host  will formally be made known by the management of NUGA in the coming days.

The hosting right was awarded to UNILAG after the submission of the NUGA Facilities Inspection Team,
which visited UNILAG on April after inspecting facilities at UNIJOS.

Reports have it that the inspection team was impressed with UNILAG’s  facilities coupled with
the leverage the tournament would get if staged in Lagos.

The idea of the bidding by UNILAG was spearheaded by the former Vice Chancellor of UNILAG, Rahaman
Bello, who said it was aimed as part of the institution’s strategy to strengthen its sports centre and
make more impact in sports.

“As a university, we put resources proportionally in all facets. We have so many issues to contend with; we have not put sports aside. Although we did not win the last NUGA games, we were not far below in ranking. We were in the fourth position. That we did not win in the NUGA games does not mean we have not been winning laurels. We won the basketball and two or four major events,”

Bello told journalist before his exit early this year.

And under the leadership of the new VC, Oluwatoyin Ogundipe, efforts have been made to upgrade sports
facilities within the school. Federal University of Agriculture, Makurdi hosted the last edition of the games which was won by the  University of Port Harcourt with 150 medals. Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, emerged second, while Benson Idahosa University came third. UNILAG secured the fourth position with 20 medals made up of nine gold, four silver and seven bronze medals.

AY, Skales, Terry Apala, Akpororo, iceberg Slim, Mr Real and many more set to play against drug abuse.

Sequel to the march against drug abuse held in March this year, the Procreatif media team has put together the third season of the first ever inter university mini football tournament - Powerball Football Tournament.

The inter university mini football tournament would be hosted in the University of Lagos  on the 26th of May, 2018 at the sand pitch. Unilag Sport Center.

University of Lagos, Lasu, Babcock university, O.O.U, Yabatech and  four other universities will be playing in this year’s tournament along side two celebrity teams; Team AY comedian and team Achievas entertainment.

The event is free to attend and kicks off at 9:00 AM.

The powerball football tournament is proudly supported by Unilag Sports Republic.

Science Super league :Match Week One updates

 It was a memorable round of matches in the week one of the Science Super league Second Edition as Most of the teams showed they are all out to fight for the Crown


First Match of the League had CSC and CHM take on each other in a one sided Affair . Both teams tested each other from the other ends in the first half as it ended in a stalemate but few minutes after the second half, CHM midfielder and last season award winner for goal of the season, WARNER,  opened the goal curtain after he found his way past a loose defence. With few minutes to go, RODNEY sealed the win with a strong header into the net after a WARNER pin point Cross from the corner side.

 Second fixture had the Elites cup 2.0 defending champions MSM lock horns with Intimidation cup winner MAT with both sides sharing the spoils in the first half after an early opener from MSM power house SNAZZ, and the latter squared things up in the dying seconds with an equaliser from MAYOWA. MAT got their winner through team captain BILAL from a loose MSM defence to seal their win.

 The preceding fixture had league underdogs BCH battle it out with MIC. With the former surprisingly taking all possession in the first period. Barely had the second half started before MIC LARRY found the back of the net after a curly corner kick. the score line remained like that for the rest of the match.

ZLY Vs BCH
ZLY continue to impress in their quest to retain the league as they showed class in their 1-0 win against BCH . Arnold got the only goal of the game after curling in a corner kick although he was left to rue some missed chances from one on one occasions. In the end, he got his team the win.

PHS Vs GEO
In the final match of the ssl3 fixture1, PHS hosted GEO in what was totally a one sided affair. PHS Lateef was on fire as he bagged a brace in the match. From start to finish, GEO played their match in wonderland as PHS assumed all of the ball possession. PHS Lateef however got booked for a red card after two yellow cards, the second booking came as a result of him pulling off his shirt and kicking the ball out of play.

EL SCIENTIFICO : Biological Science edge out Physical Science in The Traditional kick off match for the Science Super league...

EL SCIENTIFICO

Football as they say is really  a game of passion and flair, this was evident in the Traditional kick off match for the Science Super league II as all players were putting on a smile, Happy to get back to the football field and putting aside the fact that they will face off against each other soon when the league starts proper.

As all teams intensify their preparations towards the league, players had a last and rare chance to play alongside players from other teams as all 11 teams were split into two to play a Novelty match which signifies the beginning of the league, All teams Split into Team Physical Sciences and Team Biological Sciences faced off in the EL SCIENTIFICO.

The Physical Sciences Team had the luxury of picking a line up from 22 all Star players while Biological Sciences on the other hand could only get to pick from 14 players available. The match kicked off a little late as a result of logistics issues but when it eventually started, it was nothing short of what the fans expected with Biological Sciences setting the pace and dictating the game with some slick passes. It didn't go unrewarded though as the Biological Science Team got a goal through Garrett from a Dayo Set piece. The team continued with the momentum in which they got the first goal and just as it seemed like the first half was gonna end with just a goal, another goal was scored by a weak snazz shot after it couldn't be dealt with by the Physical Sciences Team, 2-0 and that signalled the end of the First half.

The Second half started in a different manner from the first as the Physical Sciences Team substituted all players that took part in the first half and this made the game more balanced as they came close to pulling one back a couple of times but the Biological Sciences defence consisting of only MSM players were on top form for the duration of the game there by sending a message ahead of the League proper. 2 nil in favour of the Biological Science Team and if there is anything to go by in this encounter, it is that we are in for an explosive Super League...
