BAGUIO City National High School overcame a two-set deficit to frustrate Benguet State University, 23-25, 20-25, 25-13, 25-21, 15-11, and clinch the Northern Luzon leg crown of the Shakey’s Girls’ Volleyball League at Davao Doctors College gym recently.
Given up for lost after dropping the first two sets, the Baguio tossers fought back with an imposing win in the third to complete an improbable run to the championship and earn a spot in the Tournament of Champions set early next year.
University of the Cordilleras finished third in the weeklong event sponsored by Shakey’s and organized by Metro Sports headed by president Freddie Infante.
Baguio City NHS thus joined the other regional winners of event, backed by Mikasa, Asics, Tune Hotel, Burlington, BioFresh, Food Health and Science Magazine, in the T-of-C slated Jan. 13 to 17, at Ninoy Aquino Stadium.
