                    [Title] => Fil-Am tanker boosts RP hopes in Athens
                    [Summary] => A Filipino-American swimmer qualifying for the Athens  Olympics then baring his plans to compete for the Philippines is certainly a welcome development as far as the country’s participation in the quadrennial event this August is concerned.


"This is good to know that we have more talents to make the RP team not only for Athens but also for the 2005 SEA Games which our country is hosting," said Philippine Olympic Committee (POC) president Celso Dayrit yesterday.

Walsh, a 17-year-old student who competed out of the Tide Water Club in Virginia, met the Olympic B standard of two minutes 04.56 seconds in the men’s 200-meter butterfly when he clocked 2:04.13 in the Charlotte Ultra-Swim Championships last June 10 to 14.

The Philippine Amateur Swimming Association (PASA) has put up its own fund-raising campaign just to ensure the smooth participation of six Filipino swimmers in Asia’s final Olympic qualifying tournament later this month in Kuala Lumpur.

Anthony Lozada, PASA training director, said the fund-raiser is intended to augment whatever financial assistance that would come from the Philippine Sports Commission (PSC), the government’s funding arm in sports.
