ETCS
team off to US today
BY CHRISTIAN IRL TAN
The members of the Education and Training Center School delegation leave for the United States this morning to compete in the 2006 Junior League World Series in Kirkland, Washington.
The ETCS delegation's departure comes a day after another World Series-bound team, Domingo Lacson National High School, returned to Bacolod City. The DLNHS contingent, which was supposed to fly to the United States for the Senior League World Series in Delaware, failed to secure enough funds for their tickets (see page 1 for related story).
Lagrimas Ciokon, a member of the ETCS coaching staff,
said members of the delegation received their visas from the US Embassy
Monday.
