On the 8th day of November 2024, Princess Vie Romero, a BS Accountancy graduate and Arc Kheeneth Ulat, a third-year student from Philippine College of Northwestern Luzon (PCNL), were awarded winners in the "Bagong Pilipinas" essay writing contest conducted by the Presidential Communications Office (PCO) at Malacanang Palace.

The Presidential Communications Office (PCO) spearheaded a Community Campus Caravan and Competitions among college students as a celebration of "Communications Month 2023" last October 2023. Students were invited to take part in different contests: short-film making, songwriting, essay writing, mural painting, and spoken word poetry.

Through this program, students were not only given a chance to showcase their knowledge and skills but also to navigate the complex media landscape and make informed decisions, especially those who joined the Essay Writing contest.

Among all students from state universities and private colleges who participated in the activity, two students from PCNL bagged the 1st Place and 2nd Place awards, respectively, in the Regional category. Along with them was one of the advisers of PCNL Express News (PEN), Ms. Marian Jomalyn Aquino, who proudly accompanied the two in receiving their awards. Miss Romero is a BSA fresh graduate and former Chief Feature Writer of PEN, while Mr. Ulat is a BSIT student in his junior year and also a staffer of PEN. Miss Romero and Mr. Ulat not only serve as role models for the nation but also stand with pride representing their beloved school, PCNL, embodying excellence and resilience.

These are what define PCNLians as true athletes. Not only did they demonstrate sportsmanship and athleticism from beginning to end, but they also embraced the diversity of students and showed mental strength that prevailed during a typhoon.

The first two days of nerve-wracking games of mind and strength ended smoothly. The leagues' growls, screams, hisses, roars, and snarls reverberated in the campus, shifting the aura of the premises into of their battlegrounds.

However, the originally scheduled three-day clashes turned into a weeklong battle, with a three-day delay before the continuation. Despite of the postponement of the event, the fire and spirit of both athletes and performers did not wane but ignited more. They transformed what could have been a setback into an opportunity to prepare for the final matches and stunning performances seen in Days 3 and 4 of Sports Fest.

In appreciation of the collective efforts and superb performances of the students who profoundly participated with enthusiasm and vehemence, certificates of recognition and cash prizes were awarded to the earned champions which marked the end of the program on the afternoon of Day 4, October 27.

Summing up for the PCNL Sports Fest 2024, the overall standing is:

CHAMPION: Black Panthers
2nd Place: Purple Hydra
3rd Place: Yellow Pythons
4th Place: White Knight Wolves
5th Place: Blue Tigers

In the end, the Black Panthers of the Criminology Department remained undefeated, once again being declared as the overall champions. The results mirrored those of the previous creating a sense of dรฉjร  vu as the Criminology Department claimed the throne once more whilst screaming their lungs out for victory.

As part also of the PCNL family, the faculty and staff, and alumni also enthusiastically participated in various games. This proved that they can still make their athletic moves despite of their hectic schedules.

To top it off, this year's Sports Fest imparted an extraordinary experience to all PCNLians, coupled with important lessons: students' diversity must be reckoned with while equality should always persist, and the need to strengthen their mental and emotional resilience, enabling them to face adversity with courage.

As the Blue Tigers marched down from the old building to the grounds shouting their spirited yell, "Apay ti kunayo maabak kami? Eh Madi, eh Madi," they waved their colorful props like brave tigers, posing into their first formation with fierceness.

Blue Tigers put out a very colorful and spirited dance presentation in the Cheerdance Competition. They danced in bright-colored outfits and props that vividly demonstrated how dynamic their teamwork was. This energetic display engaged the audience, proving their ability to connect with the crowd.

While the Blue Tigers were looking very presentable, they actually took a little more time over the limit, undermining their position.
While they clearly gave out an indication of eagerness to present their full routine, their growls and roars failed to fend off their contenders. In retrospect, they stand fourth as runner-up. Their streak looks forward to this experience for their next competition, hoping to have their growls and roars hit the mark.

White Knight Wolves, known for their complexity and high intelligence, howl loudly as they cite their yell and stunningly deliver a spectacular performance that stuns the audience. Their aesthetic approach and nostalgic song choice set the crowd going wild, allowing them to communicate on a deeper level.

Overall, their performance highlighted their vibrance, dedication, passion, and unity as a pack, making it an exquisite show and an exceptional experience for everyone involved.

As a result of their team effort and hard work, the White Knight Wolves placed 3rd runner-up. Finishing in second-to-last place was undoubtedly a little disappointing for all the sacrifices they made, but this season has provided valuable lessons and opportunities for their growth and improvement. The team faced the challenge head-on despite their nemesis strength. This experience will serve as a foundation for rebuilding and striving for success in the seasons to come.

In the final day of PCNL's Sportsfest 2024, the Dance Sports Competition served as a gleaming spectacle where departments clashed with rhythm and style.

Hydras stole the spotlight with their head-turning performance and with a dazzling performer whose sass and dramatic flair had the crowd entranced all throughout their performance. Their routine, seeping with personality and precision, not only clutched the Best in Showdown title but also enthroned them as champions.

Despite the Wolves' unexpected absence creating a void in the competition, the Black Panthers, Blue Tigers, Yellow Pythons, and purple Hydras turned the dance floor into their own jungle.

When the final beats dropped and the dust settled, the standings revealed a fierce competition: the Black Panthers prowled their way to third place, while the Blue Tigers pounced to second. The Yellow Pythons slithered impressively into first runner-up, but it was the Purple Hydras who served the final death drop, proving they were truly in a league of their own.

As darkness begins to fall on All Hallows' Eve, a young adventurer's curiosity leads him into a mystical encounter with friendly phantoms, reminding us that sometimes the spookiest night of the year can bring the most enchanting surprises.

May it be a reminder to never let the ghosts of your past hunt you down and the reaper dims your light.

Happy Halloween, PCNLians! Have a haunting good time and stay safe!

"Yellow Pythons on fire, Yellow Pythons gonna shine."

True to their yell, BSBA Pythons owned the grounds, bringing back the 80s and 90s feels, hissing victory and ruling Cheerdance 2024, October 27-Day 4.

One in look, one in mind, and one in body, Yellow Pythons synchronously and energetically sways and slays in the ground. Serving the crowd with commanding pyramids and vibrant vibes and smiles, Pythons were able to clinch the title, shining the brightest among other teams, having 93.5 final average.

Further strengthening their journey to triumph, Pythons' Esparagoza leaves the crowd in awe after executing a powerful three pack move: tumbling, toe touch jump, and split.

Despite facing difficulties and sudden changes days before the competition, Pythons remain hopeful, giving all effort to reign supreme despite the odds.

Indeed, amidst the darkness, smiles will prevail and Yellow will shine all the way. via | Ar John Castro

With only 5-point difference, Wolves' Rivera prevails over Hydra's Garcia, marking the board with red and claiming victory on Scrabble, winning 326-321, October 22, 2024 at the library.

In the final play in Scrabble, Garcia took an early 33-point lead after plotting his first three words: gazed (32pts), jew (25pts), and cakes (43pts). He has also secured three premium word squares (triple word bonus), further strengthening his chances for the gold. However, Rivera, with dignity and pride for her pack, refuses to back down, plotting words in the most strategic areas possible - also occupying three premium word squares.

Wolves' Rivera gradually closes the gap, eventually turning the tables after she plots into board the word 'Mobile', scoring 37 points, followed by a successful challenge, adding 10 points to her total. This win is her 4th win in Scrabble, making her undefeated all throughout the game.

Wolves' Rivera takes the title in Scrabble, while Hydra's Garcia, Tiger's Bringas, Panthers' Laron, and Pythons' Balancio places 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th, respectively. via | Ar John Castro
