IN PHOTOS: UP Pep Squad, Champions of 2012 #UAAPCDC

MANILA, Philippines – The University of the Philippines Pep Squad never disappoints.

Sure, their routines are the perfect mix of technical proficiency, creativity, and consistency, but that’s not it. It’s the squads penchant for dramatics that makes them the team to watch out for. After shocking people last year with their strawberry-blonde hair-dos, the team this year sported buzz cuts to compliment their winning routine. 

Relive the UP Pep Squad’s winning moments from the 2012 UAAP Cheerdance Competition, as captured by Josh Albelda:
