Bright spots in Philippines' dismal SEAG showing

The Philippine Star

Sinag Pilipinas, along with boxing and wushu, were some of the bright spots of an embattled Philippine delegation to this year’s Southeast Asian Games in Myanmar.

The Philippine cadet team swept its way to winning the gold medal while all the boxing team’s members have won a medal each led by the golden performances of Mark Anthony Barriga, Josie Gabuco and Mario Fernandez.

The boxing team tallied 3-4-3 gold-silver-bronze while Wushu had a perfect 3-gold medal haul.

Their performances somehow covered the fact that the Philippines will end its SEAG campaign with the worst showing in the history of the biennial meet.
