'Football,
baseball teams
can still make Thai SEAG'
BY
CEDELF TUPAS
All is not lost for the Philippine baseball and football teams bidding to make the cut for the Southeast Asian Games in Thailand late this year.
Bacolod Rep. Monico Puentevella, the Philippine Olympic Committee first vice-president, Saturday said that both teams can still see action in the biennial meet, despite the SEAG Task Force's announcement that the squads have failed to meet the criteria for their inclusion in the delegation.
Puentevella also expressed
optimism that the Philippines can finish a "decent second", behind the Thais in
the 24th edition of the 11-country meet.

VOLLEY FINALS Host University of St. La Salle-Integrated School failed to recover its bearings Saturday, bowing to an inspired Central Philippine University squad in five sets to end up fourth in its first campaign in the Shakey's Girls Volleyball Tournament of Champions in Bacolod City. CPU's 25-22, 25-20, 17-25, 25-16, 15-4 victory was sweet revenge for the Iloilo-based volleybelles, who had lost to La Salle in the elimination round at the USLS College Covered Court. The La Sallians were still reeling from the quick defeat they absorbed at the hands of eventual champion Hope Christian School Friday night. And CPU, winless in three games, wasted
little time on pouncing on a dispirited La Salle side as Sheryl Delina spearheaded
the attack with 24 points. |
