USLS battles WNU
for NOFA U23 title

Undefeated Ceres-La Salle Football Club and West Negros University Football Club will dispute the 2012 Negros Occidental Football Association Men’s U23 Provincial Championship today, 4 p.m., at the North Football field in Talisay City.

The powerhouse La Sallian team advanced to the final round with an unblemished record after sweeping all their three-game assignment, while the Wesnecans absorbed its only loss in the hands of Ceres-USLS, 2-0, during the March 7 schedule.

Aside from Ceres-USLS and WNU FC, two other squads, the La Carlota City FC and University of Negros Occidental-Recoletos joined in the tournament.

CADILLAC CHAMPIONSHIP
Pagunsan shot 69
after first round

All eyes were on Adam Scott and Jason Dufner as both finished with 6-under 66 to top the leaderboad, but three strokes behind them was Filipino and Negrense golfer Juvic Pagunsan who finished with a 69 after the first round of the World Golf Championships Cadillac Championship in Doral, Florida.

Pagunsan’s feat in the opening day of the tournament might have gone unnoticed among the golf’s top brass, but it is something to celebrate among Filipinos as their very own 2011 Asian Order of Merit champ registered a better finish against current No. 1 Rory McIlroy, who had a 73, and former golf’s poster boy Tiger Woods’ 72.

Pacquaiao faces
bout vs BIR

MANILA - Philippine boxing champion Manny Pacquiao faces a fight against the tax man, with officials saying yesterday they are probing whether the multi-millionaire has paid enough into government coffers.

The Bureau of Internal Revenue filed a criminal complaint against the eight-time world champion last week for failing to cooperate with the investigation, tax investigator Eric Diesto told AFP yesterday.

Pacquiao, 33, is accused of failing to produce documents related to his fight contracts and product endorsements that are sought by tax investigators.
