UAAP Season 77 Taekwondo Poomsae: the Aftermath


After all five poomsae events ended, the medal count for the overall poomsae championship for the 77th season of the UAAP was tabulated by the officials. The medal tally ended up looking like this:

GOLD SILVER BRONZE
INDIVIDUAL MALE UST UP DLSU
INDIVIDUAL FEMALE DLSU FEU UST
MIXED PAIR UP DLSU UST
MEN’S TEAM DLSU UST UP
WOMEN’S TEAM UP UST FEU

With just one gold medal, the University of Santo Tomas ended up being 3rd overall in the Poomsae event. This ended the dominance of the Tiger Jins’ in the poomsae event.

However, the De La Salle Green Jins and the University of the Philippines Fighting Maroons were tied with 2 gold medals. To make things more complicated, both teams garnered 1 silver medal and 1 bronze medal each. With this deadlock, Poomsae Commissioner Master Igor Mella, together with all the coaches, decided that the tiebreaker that will be implemented was to total up all the scores from all the poomsae events. The squad with the higher total will be declared as the overall champions. In other words, the quotient system was being implemented.

The result was:

IND MALE IND FEMALE MIXED PAIR MEN’S TEAM WOMEN’S TEAM TOTAL
DLSU 8.12 8.29 7.73 7.75 7.25 39.14
UP 8.16 7.94 7.81 7.57 7.79 39.27
MARGIN +13 (UP)

With a +13 quotient, the University of the Philippines was declared champions for this season’s Poomsae event.
