SJI wins Aspirants
championship

A third quarter surge by St. John’s Institute left West Negros University reeling as the Johnians swept their best-of-three finals, 77-51, and captured the NOPSSCEA Aspirants basketball crown at  the WNU gym.

From a 35-29 halftime lead, SJI engineered a crippling 21-4 run for more than eight minutes in the third quarter for a 56-33 lead.

Renz Solomon’s two free throws finally broke the ice for the Wesnecans but Jai Arroyo’s five straight points closed the quarter for a commanding 61-35 advantage for SJI.

Sugar Tee golf tilt
fires off March 11

The province's premier golf tournament, the 17th Sugar Tee, opens on March 11 at the tricky layout of the Negros Occidental Golf and Country Club in Marapara, Bacolod City.

Organized and co-hosted by the NOGCC and the Bacolod and Victorias Golf and Country Clubs, the three-day event will feature players from different parts of the country as well as a number of overseas golfers.

Already 170 teams have signed up for the event with last year’s winning tandem of Paul Chang and Rudy Delos Reyes leading the pack of title chasers.
