MANILA, Philippines — Handang handa na sina PH BEST standouts Micaela Jasmine Mojdeh at Heather White para sa prestihiyosong 9th World Aquatics Junior Championships na lalarga sa Setyembre 4 hanggang 9 sa Netanya, Israel.

Pangungunahan nina Mojdeh at Heather ang national junior team na target makasikwat ng medalya sa naturang world meet na lalahukan ng matitikas na junior swimmers mula sa iba’t ibang panig ng mundo.

Sasalang si Mojdeh sa anim na events — sa women’s 400m Individual Medley, 200m butterfly, 100m breaststroke, 200m IM, 100m butterfly at 200m breaststroke.
