The Sacred Heart School-Hijas De Jesus Senior Girls Team bagged the Girls-17 title in the 1st Patid sa TC Football Festival recently at the University of San Carlos- Technological Center field in Brgy. Talamban, this city.

The SHS-HJ belles did not concede a single goal in sweeping all their three games in the elimination round. They beat SHS-Jesuit, 1-0, and then pummeled Little Angels Montessori School (LAMS) 12-0, courtesy of the three goals each from Bea Maximo and Jackie Ting, two goals from Erika Casas and one goal each from Banban Yu, Mara Dado, Maris Ting and Lea-Ann Calejesan.

The SHS-HJ Seniors sustained their sizzling run by whipping sister-team SHS-HJ, 2-0. Banban Yu and Maris Ting delivered the winning goals.

SHS-HJ, behind the heroics of Banban Yu and Erika Casa, then thumped San Roque FC, 2-0, in the final to clinch the championship.

For topping Group A with a clean 3-0 slate, SHS-HJ Seniors also advanced into the women’s open, but lost to the Bulwarks via penalty shootout, 2-0. Bulwarks is composed of former varsity players who are now employed with different companies.

The SHS-Hijas Seniors are composed of Gail Oliamot, Bea Maximo, Erika Casas, Banban Yu, Jackie Ting, Lea-Ann Calejesan, Nicole Chanlim, Regine Lim, Mara Dado, Maris Ting, Karina Hilado and Monica Lee. Their coach is Dom Villamor assisted by Richard Canedo and Chris Escudero.

Interestingly, the SHS-HJ Seniors had already established several records including back-to-back titles in the San Roque Football Festival (2006 and 2007), championship in this year’s Milo Little Olympics Visayas, and first runner-up honors in the 2006 Mizuno Football Festival.

SHS-HJ COACHING STAFF WINS LAHUG FOOTBALL FESTIVAL

The Sacred Heart School-Hijas de Jesus Coaching Staff turned negative outlook into positive to clinch the men’s open crown of the 1st Lahug Football Festival at the University of Southern Philippines Foundation (USPF) field.

The newly-formed SHS-HJ Coaching Staff frustrated Don Bosco Alumni Football Club, 2-1, via penalty shootout in the final.

The victory of the SHS-HJ Coaching Staff booters was unexpected as they almost withdrew from the tournament after losing their first game against Barili by default. They only had six players who came on time.

“The team’s performance was totally unexpected. We almost withdraw from the tournament. I was disgusted when they forfeited their first game when the team was not able to field the minimum required 7 players to start the game. The others came in very late. Very unprofessional,” said team director Jonathan “Maxi” Maximo.

Maximo lectured the coaches that they are supposed to be role models to their players, yet they too lacked discipline.

After the discussion, everybody committed, not exactly to win the title, but at least to book a semifinal seat.

SHS-HJ was right on target as it landed No.2 in Bracket A with a 3-2 win-loss record.

SHS-HJ won against USPF-B, 2-0, Talisay Football Club, 3-0, and NTD FC-A, 1-0. Its second loss was inflicted by Don Bosco Alumni, 0-1.

In the semifinal round, SHS-HJ upset Bracket B top seed Hiroshi Football Club, 1-0. Former RP team member Richard Cañedo nailed the winning goal for the Jesuits.

Having been beaten by Don Bosco in the elimination, SHS-HJ Coaches worked doubly hard on their defense resulting into a scoreless draw at the end of the regulation period, thus, the penalty shootout.

Don Bosco’s first kicker scored, but Jade Paghubasan of SHS-HJ quickly sank the equalizer. The Bosconians flubbed in their next two attempts and in the ensuing sequence, Cañedo hit a goal to seal SHS-HJ’s resounding triumph. — Caecent No-ot Magsumbol

THE Sacred Heart School Hijas de Jesus settled for the last spot in the 2007 Pintaflores Football Festival after bowing to Poveda, 1-3, yesterday at the Center Mall Fields in San Carlos City.

PaBol chief Jonathan Maximo said that it was not a bad thing for his troop as they were only after the experience and that the battle for third saw a more improved Sacred Heart team.

“The team improved a lot. In the elimination, they lost to Poveda, 5-0. now they were able to score and keep Poveda’s scoring minimal,” Maximo said.

Yesterday, Erin Yap scored the lone goal for Sacred Heart. Earlier on, the team also bowed to San Carlos City, which is a selection of the city’s top 17 years old and under players, 1-7. It was Grazel Galeos, who banged in Sacred Heart’s lone goal.

“We were up against better teams. Our team is school-based and is composed mostly of new players,” Maximo added.

This team, according to Maximo, is the school’s team B. SHS-HJ’s premier team A will be leaving for Manila of Nov. 10 for the Alaska Cup, which is just one of the competitions lined up for the team.

They have a scheduled tournament in Manila on January, Cagayan de Oro in February and Bukidnon in May. (MCB)

POVEDA BURIES PABOL 5-0

THE Sacred Heart School Hijas de Jesus PaBol Football Club bungled its first assignment in the 2007 Pintaflores Football Festival and suffered a 5-0 whitewash against a tougher and more experienced Poveda Manila in the competition’s opening day yesterday at the Center Mall Fields in San Carlos City.

“We won’t give any excuses. We simply lost to a more mature team,” said PaBol head Jonathan Maximo.

Poveda’s coach also admitted that he fielded an over-aged player.

The competition is for players 17 years old and above and playing for Sacred Heart are players who are between 13 to 15 years old.

“The coach informed us as well as the other teams about it and so we all agreed. It is okay. All is well, this is a developmental league anyway,” Maximo said.

The team, which is Team B of the PaBol squad, came face to face with a new format—the 9-aside game— with the offside ruling in play.

“It was new for us. But the girls had lots of fun and learned a lot from that experience. Competing here is a reward for those players who are serious in their practices and trainings,” he added.

The team was set to play Dumaguete City late yesterday afternoon. Poveda, meanwhile, received a bashing from home team San Carlos City, 2-5, later in the day. PaBol will face San Carlos City this morning.

“The title favorite here is San Carlos City. So we are up for a tall order tomorrow (today). They defeated Poveda and Dumaguete by a wide margin,” Maximo added.

PaBol’s team A will be competing in the Alaska Cup in Nov. 10 in Manila. (MCB)
