If you watched from from the comforts of your own home and thought that UP Pep Squad’s performance in the 2015 UAAP Cheerdance Competition was awespiring, what more for the Iskos who witnessed the performance live at the Mall of Asia Arena.

Izzah Taccad, 18, said that UP’s “utak and puso” routine was an emotional experience for her.

“When we first saw the performance during the pep rally, we almost cried because we’re so amazed,” she said in Filipino. “It’s overwhelming and it shows that UP really ups the ante every performance.”

The third year computer science major took exception of the unique stunts by the UP Pep Squad, specifically the flyers which “almost looked like they’re gliding.”

“UP has that thing of being unique, of doing things that haven’t been done or even thought of by the other squads,” she said.
