The benefit game last Friday for the late Lucky Pitogo was a success. The Panphil B. Frasco Memorial Sports Complex at Liloan was packed when the UV Green and Baby Lancers strutted their wares as a sign of tribute for their fallen teammate.
The Visayanian spirit was evident as more than half of the crowd who witnessed the games were either UV students or alumni. Didi Gullas was around as well as some instructors to show solidarity and unity for the noble cause. I didn’t know and was pleasantly surprised that his son, Samsam, plays good hoops.
Coach Jun Pepito organized the event in cooperation with the SK Federation of Liloan and Marlito Cañete. A substantial amount was raised which was in turn donated to the family of Lucky. He will be buried today, a promising talent forever lost.

They might not know it but not only are they questioning you and your athletes but they are also maligning the good name of Liloan who happens to support the team. And dammit, these people even reside in the municipality. Hey Leolu, wazzup with your people?

Sacred Heart School-Jesuits will have their secondary commencement exercises today and the grade school department tomorrow. My son Emil will graduate from high school and my daughter Ana will graduate from the elementary. No amount of wealth can measure a parent’s pride and happiness seeing their children get up the stage and recieve their diplomas. Congratulations Emil and Ana and the rest of the SHS-J graduates for a job well done..
