Season 2 IASAS Sports

By Amber Wu (‘23), Ariel Lee (‘23) & Victoria Hsu (‘24)

The Interscholastic Association of Southeast Asian Schools (IASAS) sports competitions returned for season 2 sports from Feb. 2 to 4. Swimmers traveled to International School of Kuala Lumpur (ISKL), touch and rugby athletes to Jakarta International School (JIS), basketball athletes to International School of Manilla (ISM) and tennis players to Singapore American School (SAS).

My favorite part of this IASAS was winning our relay and hanging out with my hilarious team. It was a little different because it was the first IASAS event for most swimmers, but it was still so much fun, and I’m so grateful to have had one last chance to travel and compete.

The best part of the whole experience was meeting people from all of the other schools, and just having fun.

The cheering and the celebration where everyone gets really hyped when we win was my favorite part. This season was the best season ever.

- Jaden Y. (‘23)

My favorite part of this experience was being able to play with my team for the last time and seeing ISB friends again. I feel so happy to have won gold with my team.

-Ava A. (‘23)

I was so proud of seeing every member of the team help to string together a final game-winning drive against SAS in the championship.

-Justin M. (‘23)

My favorite part of the whole IASAS experience was the connections I was able to make with new people and the bond I strengthened with my teammates. It was such a great way to end off my last basketball season and I’m so glad that I was able to do it with my fellow ‘beaballers.

My favorite part of the IASAS experience was playing in front of a large audience and silencing the home crowd after hitting an elbow jumper.

My favorite part about IASAS was seeing the girls on the team grow a special bond and being there for each other. I felt so proud of our team because I knew how much everyone practiced in hopes that we would medal at IASAS.

-Catherine L. (‘23)

We’re really happy about it. Of course everyone’s a little bit disappointed that we didn’t try to go for gold or silver, but in the end, a medal is a medal.
