Mens 800m Feature event PB for Ulboc.

.( Aug 2) The 800m was going to be the feature event of this weekly relays however on July 28 the times were a bit slower than usual. SEA Games Silver Medalist and National Champion Mervin Guarte of SSC (San Sebastian College) won in 1.55.5, ahead of Steeple Chaser Christopher Ulboc FEU 1.55.9 (PB) (Far Eastern University) and National Bronze Medalist Jordan Paul Billones 1.56.3 (Unattached). Absent from the race was National Silver Medalist Wenlie Maulas of UE (University of the East).

Guarte just did enough to win his best time is 1.50.65 from sea games and this year 1.52.19 at the PNG (Philippine National Games) in May. Billones also was behind his best time which was 1.53.78 at the PNG. Guartes training partner Ulboc stepping down to the shorter distance improved his PB which was 1.56.71 back in 2009.

.

Malacad Disqualified

Another member of the national training pool, Josie Malacad of FEU who performed so brilliantly in Vietnam last month (new pb 400 hurdles 1.02.30 and 400m 57.04) also did enough to win the womens 400 Hurdles in a time of 1:06.0 unfortunatley she was disqualified for running out of her lane for side clearing (explained below in comments).

Meanwhile in the Mens Division, Decathlete Jesson Ramil Cid of FEU clocked a modest 54.9 to win his 400 Hurdles clearly. Cid was not far off his season best of 54.79 he set at the UAAP earlier this year, but still quite far off the 53.1 he established at the UAAP last year. (interestingly enough the 400 Hurdles is not part of the ten events which make up the Decathlon).

.

Cousins cleanup in sprints

FEU women had three collegiate 4×100 relays and took the first three spots. While in the mens FEU newest recruit Isidro Del Prado Jr. aka. Tilo (formally of College of Saint Benilde, and son of Isidro Del Prado 400m record holder) anchored his team to a 42.4 win over JRU 43.3.

In the Mens 200m, Tilo’s cousin Pearnel Lobos of JRU (formally of FEU, the son of 4×4 national record holder Perla Balatucan), had the fastest 200m time with 22.5. Lobos who was one of the favourites at the national games in the junior 100m last may, before pulling his hamstring in the finals. While in womens Heptathlete Mildrid Salut of FEU ran 26.8 in women’s.

.

Pole Vaulters

.

National Coach and Masters Athlete Emerson Obiena won the mens pole vault over a bunch of athletes 25 years his junior with a leap of 4.00m. His brother Edward was 5th in 3.60m.

National team member Riezel Buenaventura who is coached by Emerson, was another national athlete who had a comfortable win with a 3.40m leap some 50cm of her personal best. The National Record is held by Filam Deborah Samson who leapt 4.11m back in 2008 at the California regionals. Samson also jumped 4.12m before obtaining a Filipino passport. The impression though left in the juniors was by upcoming junior Natasha (Nash) Marie Nalus whose first pole vault leap in a competition of 2.80m put her at #5 on the junior all-time list. Her training partner Katrina Baron holds the Junior Record at 2.90m from last year.

.

Palabrica breaks through

FEU Rookie 18-year-old Evalyn Palabrica who won the Palaro Pambansa Javelin representing Western Visaya’s earlier this year (39.61m), got the better of team-mate Jenefer Penepona with a throw of 39.40m. Penepona the UAAP Champion whose best is 41.66m was well off target with a throw of 35.63m.

In Mens Discus National Games Silver medalist Joel Sta. Mina of FEU won with 37.81m (PNG 40.25m).

Report

Jose Unso got the better over his much more prestigious younger brother in the Mens 400m Hurdles. In a hairline finish Jose (55.96) and Patrick (55.97) both timed 56.0 with the win going to Jose. The brothers later returned to win the Mens 4×100 in 42.1 for DLSU well clear of the FEU team 43.3.

In a return to competition Keizel Leano Pedrina running under the name ‘Bernice Chua’ won the womens 400m Hurdles easily in 1:04.8, albeit about a second off her personal best.

JRU Pearnel Lobos was the top man in the 200m with the days best time of 22.3 (pb 22.36 UAAP), 18-year old Lobos who was one of the favourites in the Boys 100m last PNG until pulling him hamstring in the final. Unknown Gabriel Santos? of Letran won heat 1 in 22.4. Palaro 2011 400m Champion Anfrenee Lopena (transferred from University of San Recoletos Cebu to College of Saint Benilde, originally from Bohol) made a return to the track after more than a years absence to win heat 8 in 22.7. UAAP 100m Bronze medalist Jasper (DLSU) Tanhueco won the fourth heat in 22.8.

Some very quick times in the girls 200m with St. Francis of Assisi 16-year old Marilyn Avila (96) winning heat 1 in 26.2, her team-mate another speed teenager Christine Del Rio (96) topped the 5th heat in 26.5. The quickest time in the boys 200m was 23.0, the name is not listed if anyone knows please post in the comments. The girls posted faster times than the winner of the womens Mildrid Salut (FEU) 26.6.

Nothing special in the mens 800m this week with the top three at the nationals Guarte, Maulas, Billones and the inform Ulboc deciding to sit this one out. The times in the event for some reason were a bit slow. The winner was JRU Roldan Verano the 21-year old has a personal best of 1.53.6 (2011 NCAA), however could only manage 1.57.5 for the win in the first heat, Rafael Poliquit (FEU) 1.58.9 probably a personal best time finished behind him. Michael ‘Topix’ Villamor (UPHR) who was fourth at the nationals timed 2.03.7, which was well behind his personal best of 1.55.04 (PNG 2011 Bacolod) and his seasons best 1.56.60 (2nd 2012 NCAA).

In the Mens Pole Vault it seemed everyone wanted to jump 3.80m. 37-year old Antonio Chee and 48-year old National Champion Emerson Obiena emerged joint winners. Then on countback 2010 UAAP Champion Zek Valera, National Junior Record Holder EJ Obiena (returning from broken bone injury), and upcoming Robert Miguel Nasis (UP) all registering 3.80m also.

Luckily for the men Riezel Buenaventura wasnt jumping around her best as it would have meant the indignity of being upstaged by a women. Buenaventura registered 3.60m. But the real excitement came from the second placer Natasha (Nash) Marie Nalus who broke the Philippine Junior Record with a leap of 2.95m read more here. Former record holder and training partner Katrina Baron had a slight improvement with a 2.40m leap.

Also on the improvement trail was FEU Evalyn Palabrica who is looking like the favourite heading towards the UAAP Javelin. The 18-year old who was only throwing 36m at the Palaro in June improved her best again from 39.61 to 41.55. This time increasing the margin of victory over defending UAAP Champion and team-mate Jennfer Penepona 38.55m (pb 41.66m last uaap). The improvement has catapulted Palabrica from 8th to 3rd on the all time junior list. Only Record Holder and former SEA Games Champion Rosie Villarito (44.54) and Palaro Record Holder Stephanie Cimatu (42.34) are ahead now.

Weekly Relay BIB Numbers

*Special Note to all participants in the Weekly Relays please ensure you are wearing the correct ‘BIB’ and to register at the PATAFA office as this causes confusion for the encoder of the results, the points system, national coaches and the Statiscians .

Several athletes had complained that BIB Numbers were made of very flimsy paper material which was very easy to rip. Hence they used their team mates BIB Numbers as their original number was originally destroyed.

I recall how when I first competed way back in 2000 at the National Open the BIB’s where made of more durable Cotton. These concerns and suggestions have been passed onto the PATAFA. (please post comments)

.

Report

(Aug 25) Some very fast times reported by unknowns and super fast times upto #9? possibly relating to Bib Swapping or timing issues? PATAFA encoder and staff is investigating and checking with the time keepers. Seven Days after the said event

For now the results should be considered on hold as the winning time listed as two of the times listed are faster than what Rene Herrera ran during the olympic games.

An incredibly fast set of results, which is currently being amended by PATAFA. For the record I did not notice most of these names as none of them are ranked faster than 15m45 this year.

2011 Palaro 400m Champion Anfernee Lopena (running as Jason Benitez BIB) of CSB had the fastest time taking out the first heat in a new best time of 10.9. Lopena originally from Bohol but who transferred from Cebu smashed his previous best time of 11.50. National Hurdles Record Holder Patrick Unso (DLSU) also clocked the same time but a bit later on winning heat 11.

In the first heat Jenny Rose Rosales (UE) got the better again of Palaro Champion Maureen Emily Schrivjers (DLSU) 12.5s to 12.6s, it was a repeat of the placings at the National Games in May. Rosales will attempt to defend her UAAP title she won earlier this year in November.

Michelle Loterte (UST) the National Junior Hurdle Champion was a distant third in 13.0. FEU’s UAAP Heptathlon Champion Mildred Salut won the third heat in 13.0, and her team mate National 400 Hurdles Champion Josie Malacad won heat 5 in 13.0. National Junior 400m Champion Neslee Angco won heat 2 in 13.2.

Christine Del Rio of Assisi was the fastest high school girl with a PB of 13.0.

This week 16-year old Catherine Bristol ‘conceded’ a loss to Carmen Dalyn in the Womens 3k. Dalyn of FEU who was the UAAP Champion in several distance events last year winning easily in 11:20.8.

.

The Amendments that need to be made to the Week 6 results are as follows.

1. The Mens 5k obviously had some sort of time keeping issue, whether it was a lap short
2. Anthony Lopena (CSB) used ‘Jason Benitez’ BIB in the Mens 100m.
3. Felyn Dolloso (DLSU) used ‘Gerald Layumas’ BIB in the Womens Long Jump
4. The Boys high school results are jumbled with the girls high school results in the 100m

If anyone has any other concerns with the results (please post in the comments here so these can be forwarded onto PATAFA

Report(/September 1) Weekly Relays Week 7.
.

Announcement for General Public: Please Note due to the Pasig Oval being used for the Milo Little Olympics on September the 8th. That there will be no Weekly Relays for that week. The Weekly Relays will resume on September 15.

.

.Corrections and Amendments

Due to several time keeping/encoding issues. Week 6 report of the weekly relay is still not yet finalized. The four errors I had isolated had been fixed. However their are additional errors reported to the general public I was not able to pick up. I have attached a copy of Week 6 weekly relays however it should be noted that the encoder and PATAFA is still fixing these results and they are not yet fully finalized. Therefore I cannot add them to the combined week 1-5 super result list. Week 7 results have been attached here.

The Mystery of the Men’s 5K was that due to a lap judging error it was only 4600m.

In regards to the flimsy paper BIB Numbers. Question has been reassigned to PATAFA.

As the report and results for Week 6 were delayed due to errors. Voting on Week 6 for the Athlete of the week is still ongoing and will be closed on Friday. You can still vote for Week 6 athlete of the week here.

National Junior Champion, Michelle Loterte (UST) had a convincing win in the Womens 100m Hurdles (15.5). The 19 year old who clocked a personal best of 15.18et at the National Games is well on her way to defending her UAAP Title.  Mildrid Salut (FEU) was well beaten with (16.2), Salut clocked a personal best of 15.59et to get Silver at the UAAP last year.  Leah Casilihan(DLSU) who is being mentored by National Record Holder Sheena Atilano was third fastest (17.3), Casilihan was the Junior Silver Medalist at the PNG in 2011.

After his win last week in the 800m. Roldan Verano (JRU) was back to win the 1500m in 4.03.8. Verano’s time was a little faster than the 4.03.97 he registered earlier in the year when he won Silver behind Mervin Guarte (SSC). However it was still behind his personal best of 4.01.3 at NCAA the year before.

Week 8: Salano and Poliquit run 5k PBs

.Again a thankyou to Coach Roselyn Hamero (PATAFA) for supplying these results. Apologies for the delays but PATAFA has been very busy with other matters right now.

Might I add first that these results had some errors which have been more thoroughly checked by the PATAFA encoder so that is also much appreciated.

.

Week 7′s Athlete of the Week again was a joint decision with two junior members of the Hypersports 4×100 Relay sharing the honors with 5 votes each. Maureen Emily Schrivjers the Palaro 100/200m/High Jump Champion and Michelle Loterte the UAAP and National Junior 100m Hurdles Champion.

In regards to the flimsy paper BIB Numbers. Question has been reassigned to PATAFA.

.

Report :Salano and Poliquit show good Form for UAAP

Richard Salano (UE) again proved he is the man to beat at the UAAP registering for the fourth time in a row over 5km another personal best of 15:30.4. Salano who have smashed his personal best which was 15:42 at the beginning of the year is looking likely to take the Mens 5K title at the UAAP. As the countries fourth fastest man over 5k this year he is behind three great veterans Herrera, Buenavista and Sermona.

Not to be outdone was Rafael Poliquit (FEU) who took a considerable chunk off his last performance at Weekly Relays in July of 15:47.3 lowering that to 15:31.0. Poliquit who hails from Davao City improved his personal best last year of 15:35.4. It will be an interesting 5k with defending champion Ulboc last performance being 15:37.79 at the PNG where he beat Salano and Poliquit.

Third place went to Roldan Verano (JRU) in 15:45.5 who had been running some very good performances recently in middle distances.

Meanwhile Week 6 joint-top athlete Carmen Dalyn (FEU) gained another win in the Womens 3k.

.

Sprints

Surprisingly the fastest time of the day went to undercard Heptathlete Mildrid Salut of FEU who won the first heat with a time of 12.7s. The 23 year-old who hails from Montalban, Rizal ran her personal best of 12.68et at the UAAP in the heats failed to place in the finals. Salut also capped off a good day by winning the Womens Long Jump in 5.13m.

Both Week 7 ‘Athletes of the week’ featured in the second heat with Maureen Emily Schrivjers winning in 12.8s over Michelle Loterte 13.0s.

NCAA Champion Daniel Noval (CSB) was the fastest man on the track winning the second heat of 100m in 10.8s. Daniel who hails from Cebu came .02 seconds off the Junior Record (10.82) of his mentor National Record Holder Ralph Waldy Soguilon at the last NCAA. The last chance perhaps for that feat will be at the Thailand Nationals Nov 2-5. Meanwhile his team-mate and fellow Cebuano Week 6s Joint-top athlete Anfernee ‘Pene’ Lopena (CSB) won the first heat in 11.0 equalling the effort he had made the previous week.

JRU won the Mens 4×400 relay in 3:22.0

.

Field

Highschooler Eric Dela Cruz had a very impressive 37.06m in the Boys Discus. Riza Sombilla (UP) though slightly off her best throw won the womens shotput easy in 10.37m.

Joeann Bermudo (FEU) had a win on countback over Schrivjers (DLSU) with both registering 1.55m, with the absence of National Junior Record Holder (1.66m) Aprilen Laudencia of (FEU). It will be an exciting lineup with the three favourites going head to head at the UAAP in December.

Week 9 Report Weekly Relays (Have a Vote!)

Again a thankyou to Coach Roselyn Hamero (PATAFA) for supplying these results. And I am surprised and impressed at the speed of the availability.

.

When the dust settled the people of Philippine Athletics have decided that Week 8s athlete of the week is none other than Daniel Noval. Noval is the NCAA Champion and Record Holder in the 100m 2011 and 2012, and before that the boy from Mandaue, Cebu was the Palaro Champion 2009 and 2010 and is the joint Palaro Record Holder in the 100 and 200m Dash. Noval best time of 10.84 is just .02 shy of the JR Record held by his mentor and National Record Holder Ralph Soguilon. Daniel Noval opened up his weekly relay serie with a time of 10.8 (hand) last weekend.

.

Report

Performances where much slower than last week with very wet and windy conditions which caused alot of athletes not too turn up. UAAP Champion Michelle Loterete (UST) won the 100 Hurdles (15.9) from last years UAAP Runnerup Mildrid Salut (FEU) 16.2. With Leah Casilihan of DLSU third in 16.4.

After months of injury Robert Francisco formally of Mapua now at CSB made a return with the fastest Hurdles time of 15.6. Likewise the womens 1500 Mary Ann Dela Cruz (5:06) (FEU) and Roldan Verano (4:08) where not impressive due to the weather.

PNG Champion Keizel Pedrina (UST) in what was pritty much a solo effort won the Womens 400m in 58.4 well clear from the PNG Junior and Palaro Champion Neslee Angco (UE). The three Filipina quarter milers in the last few weeks Olarita (58.3 at Cesafi) and Malacad (58.4 at Rizal).

However in the Mens 400m Isidro Del Prado (FEU) the Silver Medalist at the PNG in this event was almost caught on the line by DLSU Team Captain Jericho Ejercito with both runners registering 50.8s. 2010 National Junior Silver Medalist Pearnel Lobos (JRU) was third with 2011 Palaro Champion Anfernee Lopena (CSB) who led most of the way fading to fourth.

Week 10 Report

Week 10 Weekly relay results are finally here however i need to note quite a few amendments/auditing needs to be made. But again thanks once again to Roselyn Hamero and the PATAFA encoder.

Week 9′s athlete of the week was Actor Jericho Ejercito. The hard working team captain of the DLSU came very close to almost holding off fast finishing National Silver Medalist Isidro Del Prado Jr. (the son of the legend and 400m Record Holder Isidro Del Prado). Ejercito is also the third son of a legend, his father is former actor and governor of Laguna E.R. Ejercito. In Week 9 Ico as he is better known was nominated overwhelmingly for his efforts with 84.6% of the votes.

,

Report: Unso Strikes Twice

For a long time in his younger brothers shadow. Jose Unso of DLSU set a personal best of 53.6 in the 400m Hurdles to break his long standing personal best of 54.0 (set way back in 2009). The oldest son of national record holder Renato Unso. He is also the training partner of Ico Ejercito. Unso won the first heat beating NCAA Champion Philip Silloco (UPHR) (56.2) easily, with rookie Glen Morales (UST) (56.2) third

2010 NCAA Bronze medalist Domingo Cabradilla the winner of heat 4 in (55.7) with Ramil Toledo (FEU) taking out heat 2 in (56.2).

Unso came back to win the 200m dash in 22 flat to win the first heat, Palaro 2011 400m Champion Anfernee Lopena of CSB was second in 22.3, with Ico Ejerctio third in 22.3. 2011 PRISAA 100m Champion Peter Pol Padal of JRU won the sixth heat in 22.3.

The shock surprise was UAAP Heptathlete Mildrid Salut (FEU) who ran well below her personal best to easily beat Palaro Champion Maureen Schrivjers (DLSU) 25.7 to 26.5 in the womens 200m. National Junior Silver medalist Neslee Angco (UE) was third in 26.6. On paper the race favorites for the 200m at the UAAP where Jenny Rosales (UE), Hanelyn Loquinto (FEU) and Schrivjers (DLSU) but now Mildrid looks like she is vying for a podium finish in that event.

.

Obiena bounces back

A sensational return to form with National Junior Record Holder EJ Obiena of ADMU returning from injury to take the mens pole vault on countback. Palaro Record Holder Adel Valdecenas was second. Both registering 4.20m. 2010 UAAP Champion Zek Valera was third. National Champion Riezel Buenaventura (PPVC) won the womens Pole Vault in 3.40m ahead of Katrina Baron (UP) who returning from injury leapt a seasons best of 2.80m.

Raniel Francisco won the mens discus with a good performance of 39.26m, ahead of 2011 Palaro Discus and Shotput Champion Efraem Gesulgon of CSB.
