The day started off with the Cricket final, a close encounter won by IT-BHU, consecutively champions of cricket for the 4th time. Badminton was a little bit disappointing as the IT team lost both the men's and the women's final but the Basketball team didn't disappoint at all and bagged the gold medal. The IT team was not in the finals of Football but it didn't reduce the enthusiasm of Football fans who saw a crunching final. The Hockey team also didn't disappoint an bagged the gold too. Kabaddi, the lost sport, also brought glory to IT-BHU and the game played after 6 years, Taek-won-do also gave the same result. IT players also won gold in Squash, Kho-Kho and Handball. The volleyball matches were close and the boys failed to win the finals but the girls team didn't disappoint at all,winning gold.

They came as storm and wrap M.E.R.I. in the midst of it.There was no answer made for them.The goals was the result of great passing from the forwards RAJKAMAL and ADITYA . The counter defence from captain JAYANT(SASHA) and goalie GUPTA deleted all the chances of the opponents to bounce back.It was a light game till first half but we didn’t show any mercy in the second half and utilised all the chances to convert them into goals.The commitment from captain before tournament proved exactly what he said and again the gold medal was in our pocket.Huge celebration after the match.
