Himamaylan rules
Area V meet

Athletes from Himamaylan City captured the most number of gold medals in both elementary and secondary divisions to dominate the sports competition in the 2011 Area V Athletics and Cultural Meet hosted by the town of Binalbagan.

The contingent from Himamaylan tallied a  total of 485 points, 215 points in elementary and 270 points in secondary, to capture the overall championship, while Hinigaran placed second with 440 points (196.5 in elementary and 243.5 in secondary).

La Castellana landed in third place after earning 316 points, while Isabela placed fourth with 275 points, Binalbagan at fifth place with 238 points, and Moises Padilla, sixth place with 206 points.

Miñoza wins ICTSI crown

Frankie Minoza pulled off one of the most stirring comebacks on the ICTSI Philippine Golf Tour, foiling Davaoneos Rufino Bayron and Elmer Saban in the second playoff hole to capture the hotly-disputed P2.5- million ICTSI Wack Wack Championship crown at WW's East course yesterday.

Minoza rallied from seven strokes down to force a sudden death, hitting two crucial birdies on Nos. 13 and 16 and a couple of clutch pars as he and Bayron shot the day’s best scores of 70 while Saban wavered with a 75 in a challenging day at Wack Wack.

The troika finished tied for first at one-under 215 at the close of the 54-hole tournament as the erstwhile leaders, including Ferdie Aunzo, succumbed to pressure and the East challenge in a topsy-turvy final round that served as a fitting ending to the 16-stage circuit organized by Pilipinas Golf Tournaments Inc.
