NCR could spoil
W. Visayas show
BY CEDELF TUPAS
ZAMBOANGA CITY – There were ominous signs coming from powerhouse National Capital Region yesterday but defending champion Western Visayas welcomed the challenge.
NCR is fielding a lean but mean contingent and could spoil a Western Visayas show in its pet events like athletics and swimming.
“It’s not going to be easy but our athletes are ready for the challenge,” Roger Banzuela, WV athletic manager, told the DAILY STAR.
Interestingly, athletes from Western Visayas will be at the forefront of the NCR campaign. 
| 13 golds at ZAMBOANGA CITY – Thirteen golds are up for grabs today on Day One of the athletics competition of the National Private Schools Athletic Association Meet at the Joaquin Enriquez Memorial Sports Complex here. The final events are in high jump, shotput, 100m, 400m, 5,000m walk, men's long jump and women's discus throw. West Negros University's Jonalyn Pula will compete in the 100m, while University of St. La Salle's Jossie Entrina banners the Western Visayas bid in discus throw and shotput. |
| La Salle tandems University of St. La Salle standouts Sheryl June Denila and Jerriz Joy Solis hardly showed the nerves that usually bug newcomers, coming away with a tough three-set win over Foundation University yesterday at the start of the 12th Nestea Beach Volley Visayas Eliminations at the USLS sandcourt in Bacolod City. Denila and Solis showed grit and stamina in a 21-19, 18-21, 15-13 victory over Maria Antonia Gabiligno and Elenie Perew. La Salle’s men’s squad was not as lucky as the duo of Marlon Luces and Mark Sabusap yielded a three-setter to University of San Jose-Recoletos. S |
