The Cebu Eastern College (CEC) Blue Dragons closed their Cebu Schools Athletic Foundation, Inc. (CESAFI) Season 25 high school basketball tournament campaign with a courageous performance, falling in a heart-stopping overtime battle against the Cebu Institute of Technology-University (CIT-U) Junior Wildcats, 61-64, in the fight for third place on December 10, 2025 at the Cebu Coliseum.

CEC entered the game eager to finish the season on a high note, and their strong start reflected that hunger. The Blue Dragons controlled the pace early, moving the ball well and attacking confidently to take a 22-16 lead after the opening quarter. Their discipline continued into the second period as they maintained a 34-31 advantage heading into halftime.

The Dragons looked sharp in the third quarter, tightening their defense and knocking down timely shots to extend their lead to 50-42. With momentum on their side, CEC appeared poised to take command of the match.

But the fourth quarter turned into an intense, high-pressure showdown. Both teams exchanged defensive highlights in a sequence of blocks, steals, and tightly contested possessions. The atmosphere inside the Cebu Coliseum erupted as the game tightened, and CIT-U managed to rally back to tie the match at 55-55, forcing overtime.

In the extra period, the Blue Dragons fought with grit and determination, but the Wildcats made just enough plays down the stretch to edge out the 64-61 win.

Despite the heartbreaking finish, the Blue Dragons walk away with a season marked by significant growth. From missing the Final Four last season to pushing deep into the postseason and nearly securing a podium finish, CEC Dragons demonstrated maturity, resilience, and a renewed competitive spirit.

‎On December 12, 2025, at the Kinder Hall of Cebu Eastern College, the Gender and Development organization hosted a vital seminar titled “Understanding the Crisis: Violence Against Women and Our Role in Change.” The event brought together educators, administrators, students, and advocates to deepen awareness and inspire collective action against gender-based violence.
‎
‎In her opening remarks, GAD coordinator, Ms. Josziel Buenconsejo framed the discussion with urgency and compassion. “Violence against women is not just a news we see on paper,” she stated. “It is a painful reality experienced by millions of women—mothers, daughters, sisters, friends—whose voices are too often silenced by fear, stigma, or lack of support.” She emphasized that the issue extends beyond physical harm, impacting mental health, economic stability, and fundamental human rights. “Change begins with empathy, informed choices, and the courage to speak up,” she urged attendees.
‎
‎The seminar was structured around the framework of Republic Act 9262, or the Anti-Violence Against Women and Their Children Act, alongside other key laws including the Magna Carta of Women (RA 9710) and the Safe Spaces Act (RA 11313). Participants were taken through the core components of VAW response: reporting mechanisms, case documentation, protection measures, legal and psychosocial support, and sustained follow-up.
‎
‎A detailed process flow outlined the journey from disclosure to reintegration, highlighting the critical role of Barangay VAW Desks and a coordinated referral system involving police, social services, health facilities, and legal aid.
‎
‎The event’s resource speaker, Ms. Carmel Amigable, Mental Health Program Coordinator, Executive Assistant (City Government), underscored the psychological impact of violence against women and their children. Additionally, she emphasized that recovery is not only legal or physical but deeply emotional and mental.
‎
‎“In any crisis, the first step is to Look—assess safety, identify visible distress, and recognize urgent needs. This ensures we respond without causing further harm,” she explained. “Then, listen.” she continued.
‎
‎Ms. Amigable also highlighted the distinct approaches needed for different age groups. For children, she recommended tools like art, play, and caregiver involvement to rebuild a sense of safety. For adults, she advised validation, breathing exercises, and avoiding unsolicited advice.
‎
‎In closing, she tied the response mechanism to the broader vision of community mental wellness, reinforcing that protecting women and children is integral to the health of society as a whole.
‎
‎The event closed with a collective commitment to foster , a vision championed by Cebu City Councilor Michelle Abella-Cellona, who advocates for community-based support and empowerment.

The Cebu Eastern College (CEC) Blue Dragons kept their Cebu Schools Athletic Foundation, Inc. (CESAFI) Season 25 campaign alive with a spirited performance in the semifinals, despite falling to the University of Cebu Main (UCMN) Baby Webmasters, 68 to 60, on December 8 at the Cebu Coliseum. UC Main secured the victory and advanced to the finals of the high school division.

CEC entered the Final Four as one of the surprise contenders of the season. The Baby Blue Dragons showed improved discipline on both ends of the floor and opened the game with confidence, taking a 22 to 15 lead after the first quarter. The momentum shifted in the second period when the Baby Webmasters opened with a 0 to 9 run that allowed them to seize a 24 to 22 lead. UC Main continued to build the advantage by knocking down four consecutive three point shots before CEC could respond.

In the final seconds of the second quarter, CEC player Llouie Jay Estorba twisted his ankle, reducing the Dragons' rotation at a critical moment. The Baby Webmasters maintained their rhythm and entered halftime with a 43 to 33 advantage.

CEC attempted to regain control in the third quarter and managed to reduce the deficit to 41 to 45 midway through the period. UC Main, however, kept its composure and rebuilt the lead to 58 to 51 heading into the fourth quarter. The Dragons continued to show resilience and battled hard in the final period, but the Baby Webmasters protected their advantage and secured the win.

Despite the loss, this result is far from a setback for CEC. Last season, the Dragons did not qualify for the Final Four. Their return to the league’s top tier this year is a clear sign of progress and renewed competitiveness. The team has already exceeded expectations and now has an opportunity to finish the tournament with a podium spot.

CEC will now turn its attention to the battle for third place. The Dragons will face the Cebu Institute of Technology-University (CIT-U) Junior Wildcats on December 10, 2025 at the Cebu Coliseum. Both teams are expected to deliver an intense matchup as they compete for the final podium position.

With their improved run this season and a chance to go even further, the CEC Blue Dragons remain determined to close CESAFI Season 25 with pride and momentum for the continued growth of the program.
