On behalf of the Pisay SMC studentry, let us help Jovie heal. 💜

Good evening, batchmates, schoolmates, and everyone.

Jovie Oralie Allida, a batchmate of ours, is currently under the care of medical professionals for a condition that we cannot disclose. We humbly ask that you include our dearest Batch Governor, Jovie Oralie Allida, in your prayers.

Currently, the amount needed for Jovie's treatment has risen to more than ₱200,000. For those who wish to give financial assistance, please prioritize the Metrobank account, as Gcash is currently unable to accept donations because the account has already reached its limit. Jovie needs to undergo surgery, and the family is in need of any help you can offer. Any amount will be deeply appreciated. 💞

Gcash: 09236960741
Metrobank: 3373337207708
VIEVS TORRES ALLIDA

For now, we kindly ask no visitations. Let us allow Jovie to rest in order for her to fully recover. Please pray for her and her family. Your support and prayers are already a great help.

Thank you so much for your kindness. 🙏

In its three-day run, Kalasag 2024 showcased the best of the very best among Pisay scholars—where the bravest came out to play and where the greatest set out to fulfill destiny. A competition nothing short of extraordinary, featuring the most incredible of narratives and the most exhilarating of showdowns.

In their first appearance, the Verdant Vespids managed to display their hearts in some of the most coveted and contested of settings. A batch that remained calm and collected — proudly rallying behind their identity and strongly rising to the challenge despite questions surrounding their inexperience. The lights may have been bright, but the Vespids did not shy away. For the Trentas, the best is yet to come as a bright future awaits, but the trophy was not yet theirs to claim, and it simply was not yet their time.

The Xanthous Hathors' determination, passion, and strength stole the attention of many this Kalasag. A batch filled with gargantuan potential that many anticipate will turn into a force that many will be reckoned with in the years to come. In only their second Kalasag run, the Hathors proved to many what they were worth — efforts that resonated with spectators and enthusiasts who figured something special might be brewing in Bente-nuebe.

The Kasai Kaisers also put up a valiant effort in this year's edition of the competition. A strong showing that flaunted they could indeed make some noise, and an exhibit that ultimately left naysayers in silence. Now dawning the burning ember of red, the Bente-otsos continue to seek greater heights than ever before, with a grand ambition still in sight and a long road forward still ahead of them.

The grit and grind of the Regalis Salvia was in full spectacle this year. Stellar performances in Volleyball, Stepshow, and Cheerdance, as well as awe-inducing outings in Table Tennis and Patintero that helped captivate and put into perspective what the batch could be capable of when unified under the same banner. Sure, they might always yearn for more, but this Kalasag run showed the ignition of a fire that many had thought to be absent in their own. A fire that will continue to persevere as their story endures.

Azul Mayari climbed their way to second this year. Their underdog story last year fueled inspiration to the many members of their batch that they could, so they sought to do so and do so accordingly with heart and mind. The Bente-syetes believed they could pull another one from the very beginning, and in the end, what concluded was the answer to what the Bente-syetes had set themselves on.

But this year's coronation belongs to the Nostra Fiera. Over the past six years, their colors and mantra might have taken different forms — the young Green Hydras, the gleeful Duyaw Avlinti, the furious Rojo Rugiente, the roaring Azure Leviathians, and the mystical Wicked Wisterias — yet it was clear. Time and time again they have proven their ability to perform at the grand stage — many times so close to claiming the grand prestige. Back-to-back podium finishes in the previous Kalasags, including a heartbreaking eleven-point gap that would have secured last year's Kalasag, simply left more to desire. This year, they finally deliver on a precedent six years in the making.

Led by powerful performances in the Cheerdance and Stepshow competitions, and fueled by definitive efforts in the Major Sports, it was enough to seal the victory for the hungry Fiera in a run like none other.

In 2024, the chant of the Nostra Fiera was heard loud, clear, and defiant. Their passion and power being second to none. And so it rightfully curtails, the crown hails all glory to Batch Bente-singko and the Nostra Fiera, the 2024 Kalasag Champions.

𝐒𝐏𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐒 | 𝗗𝗲 𝗥𝗼𝘀𝗮 𝘀𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵𝗲𝘀 𝗴𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗔𝘇𝘂𝗹 𝗠𝗮𝘆𝗮𝗿𝗶 𝗶𝗻 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗻𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗮𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗼𝗻

Azul Mayari pulled off a fairytale comeback following Sebastian De Rosa’s walk-off rainbow three buzzer be**er to eke out Nostra Fiera, 23-20, in the Kalasag 2024 Men’s Basketball Finals last Friday at the gymnasium.

De Rosa and Kenneth Hernandez led the turnaround for Grade 10, scoring 18 points combined in the second half against Nostra Fiera’s five.

“It felt majestic and amazing, I knew I was gonna hit that shot because everyday I practice and play basketball, [which is] my life,” said the shooter.

The match saw an early takeover from the tournament’s top scorer Eliss Nantes who dropped bomb after bomb, tallying 11 of Nostra Fiera’s 15 points in the first half.

However, the duo of Hernandez and De Rosa rallied back with a 15-2 run to steal the lead for Azul Mayari at 20-17 off the back of Daniel Garay fouling out for Batch 2025 with less than three minutes left in the second half.

Matthew Gutierrez then equalized with a pullup jump shot from downtown to bring the game on a knife’s edge with a minute remaining, 20-20.

The crowd stood on its feet as Hernandez failed to convert two decisive free throws off a crucial foul committed by the Grade 12 with only 45 seconds on the clock.

After a technical pause, Nostra Fiera made a critical turnover which opened the path to De Rosa’s game-winner off tournament MVP Julius Rios’ assist, grabbing the victory, 23-20, at the whistle.

[It was] sad first and foremost, though I'm very satisfied with the outcome as I know that my team did their very best," commented Nantes.

"Sadly it didn't go our way and we were very unlucky in the second half after one of our star players went out, but they (Grade 10) did a great job on winning the game, and it looks to me they'll dominate in the upcoming years if the others dont step it up," he added.

Hernandez chipped in twelve points, the most for Azul Mayari, then De Rosa with eight, while Jules Lumantas added six and Gutierrez three for Nostra Fiera.

Regalis Salvia claimed bronze after prevailing over Xanthous Hathors in the fighting-for-third match, 13-10.

On the flip side, the Grade 10 also defeated the Grade 12 in the women’s category, 13-4, ultimately taking both basketball crowns against the same batch.

Smart plays and back-to-back service aces were key as Regalis Salvia clinched gold in the Women’s Volleyball Final, Kalasag 2024, dominating Azul Mayari, 25-14, 25-19, at the outdoor court yesterday.

This match ended Regalis Salvia’s streak of finals heartbreaks as the team managed to claim victory after losing in the championship game for two consecutive years.

“After we lost to the finals 2 years in a row, we are so happy that we won today. We are proud of our achievements and our teammates for trying their best,” stated Regalis Salvia’s Mikkaella Espanola after the adrenaline-rushed match.

The game started with Azul Mayari producing an early 4-point advantage but Regalis Salvia later responded with a 6-0 blitz, securing the lead 6-4.

Batch 2027 managed to stop the bleeding with a timeout which still wasn’t enough to stop Batch 2026 as the latter was able to sn**ch 8 of the last 11 points.

Regalis Salvia finished the opening set with a comfortable 11-point margin, 25-14, having complete control of the match.

Both teams exchanged points in the 2nd set but later changed as Regalis Salvia was able to generate a commanding 6-point lead from Espanola’s 5 consecutive service aces and Cara Lademora’s soft push.

Although Azul Mayari cut the gap and only trailed by a 1-point deficit, 16-15, Regalis Salvia regained momentum as the team ended the game 25-19.

“We really need to improve our communication and our receive,” said Azul Mayari’s Jealei Eltagonde to improve their game next year.

Espanola claimed the title as the best scorer of the tournament while Lademora was hailed as the MVP.
