ECS students reached the University's Intra-Mural Basketball final on their first time in the competition.

The team, comprising Emmanuel Munyadzwe, Richard Kay, Jason Kirk, Deng Yingmao, Wang Yang, Yang Tao, Teng Long Ip, was representing the Electronics and Computer Science Society (ECSS) and achieved third place, after losing to 'Infinity' 21-13, but beating Physoc, 24-19.

'This really helps to overturn the typical stereotypical view of ECSS students as "computer geeks",' said ECSS Sports Convenor Alan Huynh, 'and we'll be back next year with a great chance of winning.

'ECS students are born winners!' he added. 'I'm hoping we can build on this platform and increase our sports activities in the future.'
