And its out:
NUS-1 (Robin Teo, Imran Rahim and Sadhana Rai) beat UPD-1 (Carlo Borromeo, Alistair Zosa and Pearl Simbulan) in the Grand Finals of the UADC-2011 with a 6-3 split.
The motion was "THW Never offer amnesty to heads of state in the midst of possible regime change". (Interesting motion, although i'd fancy my chances as opp on this one).
The Grand Finals jury was Nishita Vasan (chair), Azrul Izzam, Shuvam Datta, Loke Wing Fatt, Zheng Bo, Suthen 'Tate' Thomas, Gica Mangahas, Satya Venugopal, Jess Lopez. Dissenting Adjs were Gica, Satya and Jess.
(Note: The UADC Macau twitter has Ahyoung as panel for grand finals, but the photograph has Zheng Bo on it. I'm assuming the photo doesn't lie)
Interesting note:
This was the first time since 2001 that Ateneo are not in the Grand Finals of the Asians, either the AUDC or All-Asians. This will also be the first Asians finals in 4 years that is not an Ateneo-NTU finals (the last one was in 2007, which was an Ateneo-NUS final). I wonder when was the last time Ateneo DIDNT make the semis of the Asians. That is truly incredible dominance, and well deserved too.
The end of an era indeed... of course, we will need 2012 to see if this is really a change in the air. I bet we'll have ADMU teams back with a bang next year!!
More Analysis once the full tab is out.
