BY CHRISTIAN IRL TAN
Three Silay City-based paddlers topped their respective divisions yesterday in the 3rd Lopue's Table Tennis Association Age-Group Invitational Table Tennis Tournament at the Lopue's Table Tennis Center of Lopue's San Sebastian-Annex in Bacolod City.
Bacolod and Ma-ao also had successful bids as they brought
home two championships each in the two-day tournament that was competed
in by 84 participants. Ruby Ann Longno, gold medalist in the 2006 edition
of the National Private Schools and Athletics Association Games, jumpstarted
Silay's campaign by grabbing the women's 25-Under title, accumulating
8 points after completing a four-game sweep.
