Tolentino muling nahalal na POC president

MANILA, Philippines — Sa ikalawang sunod na pagkakataon ay pamumunuan ni cylicng chief Abraham ‘Bambol’ Tolentino ang Philippine Olympic Committee (POC).

Inungusan ni Tolentino si archery head Atty. Clint Aranas, 30-22, sa idinaos na eleksyon kahapon para makamit ang kanyang inaasam na four-year term bilang pangulo ng POC.

“Of course, it’s an honor to serve the Filipino athlete and the country. This is a full four year term,” sabi ni Tolentino. “Definitely, there will be a lot of surprises. In more than one year, we showed a lot. Paano pa kaya ‘yung full four years?”
