DepEd eyes sanction
vs. baseball officials
BY CEDELF TUPAS
Officials of the Negros Occidental high school boys' baseball team may face sanctions from the Department of Education after fielding a player in the Western Visayas Regional Athletic Association Meet in Roxas City who was not included in the initial line-up submitted to the WVRAA screening committee, DepEd regional director Victoriano Tirol said last night.
But Tirol said he is not yet ready to discuss the possible penalty against erring team officials, led by head coach Narciso Jayme from Dos Hermanas, Talisay City, pending a deeper investigation on the case.
The ineligible player was the trainer of the team and
was allegedly "overaged" for the competition, a source, who spoke on
condition of anonymity, told the DAILY STAR.

doing its best to recognize them. |

Banking on their balanced offensive attack, the Crismar dribblers established an 18-13 advantage at the end of the first quarter behind Gino Amantillo and Narsing Galang who scored 6 and 5 points, respectively. Crismar, which never trailed in the game, extended its buffer
to 31-21 at halftime before pulling away in the third period by
outscoring MJ, 17-9, for a comfortable 48-30 lead entering the payoff
quarter. |
