On 19 March evening, the finals of the Inter-College Basketball Tournament were successfully held in the Pavilion of the UM Sports Complex. Stanley Ho East Asia College (SHEAC) played Lui Che Woo College (LCWC) to compete for the champion. There were also the bronze match between Chao Kuang Piu College and Shiu Pong College, as well as the cheerleading performance competition. The event attracted nearly 200 members from different RCs to cheer for their favorite teams.
The exciting night started at eight o’clock with the battle for bronze, followed by the cheerleading performance competition among four colleges, including Cheng Yu Tung College, Choi Kai Yau College, Moon Chun Memorial College, and SHEAC. Dressing in sparkling red and dancing dynamically, the SHEAC cheerleaders attracted the attention of the audience and showed their youthful vitality.

Still, everyone was waiting for the battle for gold between LCWC and SHEAC which was to kick off at 10 o’clock. Both teams overcame obstacles all the way through two rounds of knockouts to enter the finals. No matter which team would become the champion, the most important thing was to keep the mentality.
Before the match, it was already said that there was a large disparity in strength between the two teams. The SHEAC team was formed through a strict selection procedure in the recent two months, while the LCWC team comprised several players from the basketball team of the University. Whether it was external or within the court, the SHEAC players felt tremendous pressure given this condition.
Every girl of the cheerleading squad is very charming and energetic.
啦啦隊的每個女孩都非常活潑迷人。
“You want to fight, I will fight. Our SHEAC fans are innumerable.”
Unfortunately, over the course of the one-hour match, the LCWC players had the upper hand. In contrast, missing a “big man” in the team, SHEAC was losing the ground very soon, and eventually suffered a heavy defeat of 70:27. However, a large of number of SHEAC supporters stayed behind even after the match ended to show their support to their players.
The SHEAC basketball team was formed through a rigorous procedure of selection, trials and friendly games for players to warm up. The players ranged from freshmen to seniors from different faculties, and gathered together because of one basketball dream. Along the way, from friendly matches at the beginning to the finals of the Inter-College Basketball Tournament, the team went through stumbles and achievements, and had quarrels and hugs. When we overcome hardship together, we grow together step by step.
Our hope will not be shattered by one failure. The future has more than one possibility.

未來，無限可能 – 何鴻燊東亞書院在院際籃球錦標賽披荊斬棘榮獲亞軍
SHEAC player strived to shoot.
東亞書院球員憤力投籃。
3月19日晚，澳門大學書院院際籃球錦標賽的最後一天決賽圈順利在綜合體育館舉辦，當晚由何鴻燊東亞書院對決呂志和書院，還有曹光彪書院和紹邦書院之間的季軍賽，以及啦啦隊表演比賽。當晚錦標賽吸引接近二百位來自各個書院的師生們到場觀戰打氣。
當晚八點是季軍的爭奪賽，十點才是冠軍的「廝殺」，雙方隊伍都是經過兩輪的淘汰賽一路披荊斬棘到最後的決賽，如今是誰問鼎冠軍已非首要之事，心態的保持才顯得尤為重要。距離比賽正式開始前三十分鐘是四個書院的啦啦隊表演賽，包括鄭裕彤書院、蔡繼有書院、滿珍紀念書院、何鴻燊東亞書院，青春活力釋放全場，東亞書院啦啦隊一身艷紅及動感十足的舞姿更引來無數觀眾的尖叫。
東亞書院和呂志和書院的決賽還未開始，已聽聞雙方實力的懸殊。一邊東亞書院的隊員是近兩個月通過選拔組合而成，另一方的隊員則摻雜了幾位澳大籃球隊的主力，不論從外線或者內線，皆對東亞書院的球員產生極大的壓迫感。
College students screamed and shouted whenever experiencing exciting moments on the court.
書院同學們看到場上激動人心的瞬間時都不禁尖叫吶喊。
「你要戰，我便戰，東亞粉絲千千萬。」
可惜，將近一小時的比賽內，呂志和書院的球員頗有猛虎之勢，相比下東亞隊員在缺少大中鋒的情況下節節敗退，最終以70比27的大比數落敗。但是大批擁護東亞的同學們不離不棄，完場後仍為書院籃球隊成員打氣以示鼓勵。
東亞籃球隊在近兩個月通過嚴苛的選拔組建而成，隊員涵蓋了大一至大四，從不同的學系而來，皆因共同的籃球夢會集在一起。一路走來，從最初的友誼賽到書院院際比賽，磕磕絆絆，有過分歧也有過擁抱，在克服困難的這些日子裏，大家都在一步步地成長。
For final year students, this basketball tournament would probably be their last big basketball event to represent SHEAC.
對於應屆畢業生來說，這個總決賽很可能是他們最後一個代表SHEAC的大型籃球賽事了 。
希望不會一次失敗就破滅，未來又豈止一種可能。
