Nalucaban Nagningning: Unit II winalis ng undefeated champs

Muling pinatunayan ng Nalucaban Baseball Team ng Pambujan National High School (PNHS) ang kanilang di mapapantayang galing sa isang labang nagpakita ng kanilang husay at lakas. Kilala bilang regular na kalahok sa Eastern Visayas Regional Athletic Association (EVRAA) at mga prime contenders sa Palarong Pambansa, pinataob nila ang BIBOSALARO AA (Unit II) sa isang makapangyarihang laban.

Maagang nagpakitang-gilas ang Nalucaban sa unang inning, umiskor ng 3 run at pinanatiling walang puntos ang kalaban. Ang kanilang matatag na depensa at agresibong opensa ang nagbigay ng agarang kalamangan.

Hindi nagpatinag ang Nalucaban sa ikalawang inning, nagtala ng 10 sunod-sunod na run na lalong nagpabagsak sa Unit II. Sa ilalim ng mandatory rule, agad na itinigil ang laban matapos ang ikalawang inning, sa kabuuang score na 13-0.

Ang tagumpay na ito ay muling nagpatibay sa reputasyon ng Nalucaban bilang isa sa mga nangungunang koponan sa rehiyon. Ang kanilang kahusayan ay nagsisilbing inspirasyon para sa PNHS at buong bayan ng Pambujan habang patuloy nilang inihahanda ang sarili para sa mas malalaking hamon sa EVRAA at iba pang prestihiyosong paligsahan.

Softball team ng PNHS, plinantsa ang Unit I; Pasok tungong EVRAA

Madugong ginuhit ng mga batang kampeon mula sa Pambujan National High School ang gintong trono, taglay ang kanilang natatanging lakas at liksi sa gitna ng NSPAA Meet 2025 at ngayo'y aarangkada patungong EVRAA.

Pinatunayan ng Unit IV (SISAROPA) ang tunay na husay sa larangan ng softball, at nagapi ang Unit I sa pamamagitan ng 9-0 na puntos.

Halimaw na ipinamalas ang kanilang pagtakbo at bagsik ng paghagis ng bola mula sa pitcher ng grupo, si Mariel Jane Cerda.

Ayon sa kanilang coach na si Lily Atencio, lakas ng loob, disiplina, madiskarteng pag-iisip at matibay na support system ang naghahari sa kanyang mga atleta at ito ang naging daan nang kanilang pagwagi.

Dahil dito, inaasahan ang mas matinding pagsasanay nila para sa mas malaking laban sa paparating na EVRAA.

Ash Cajosay delivers Unit 4’s first Arnis gold!

Ash Cajosay of Pambujan National High School brought pride to the SISAROPA Legends (Unit 4) by clinching their first gold medal in the Secondary Boys’ Bantamweight Division of the Labanan competitions at the NSPAA Meet 2025 Arnis Tournament. Cajosay’s precise strikes and calculated strategy secured his victory against Unit 7 in a thrilling final match.

History repeats itself in gold!

Pambujan National High School (PNHS) Hitters wrote a historic back-to-back championship to clinch the Eastern Visayas Athletic Association (EVRAA) Meet 2025 seat, torpedoing the defense of Catarman National High School (CNHS), 2-0, in the 2025 Northern Samar Provincial Athletic Association (NSPAA) Meet Men’s Volleyball Secondary Finals, at Pambujan’s Auditorium, today, January 18, 2025.

Pambujan kept their streak alive, reigning in Northern Samar as volleyball champions for the second time, paving the town its first back-to-back championship in NSPAA Secondary Men’s Volleyball after leaving their footprints on the sand last year, healing an 18 years drought.

“I feel overwhelmed — I feel so happy with the performance of my players”, said Coach Esternon “Gin-fulfill nira kanra promise saak to bring me back to Maasin where I championed 18 years ago”.

PNHS Hitters dazed CNHS in the late stretch in the first set with their revamped two-man defense, towering over the away team, 21-14. Castillo then continued their press with his service ace that enfeebled Catarman, 22-14.

The unfazed defense of Pambujan secured their win in the first set with a final play by Catarman that was thwarted by PNHS’ Abarracoso with a block, 25-17.

The rematch saw a different game from Pambujan, drubbing Catarman with electrified offense and defense that drained their opponent. “Gin-lessen namon an amon error tas gin-upay namon an amon blocking kay sito first game namo sa kanra sayo la amon blocking, tapos yana ginduwa na namo”, said team Captain Alfred Castillo.

In the second set, CNHS was able to go toe-to-toe with PNHS after Andura’s dominating spike, 6-6. But Alfred Castillo answered back, logging two banging spikes and a service ace, uplifting Pambujan by two points, 10-8.

PNHS’ Bautista continued their attacks with an invincible spike from a flawless set from Giray to march their lead to four points, 13-9.

The hailed champions hammered Catarman’s chart with an indestructible defense after Giray and Abarracoso’s consecutive blocks that emasculated the opposing team, 24-13.

Right from the bat of the next play, there, the captain soaring with his team on his back, crashing an unstoppable spike to conclude their empire in Northern Samar, 25-13.

The triumphant team, with their wings fully evolved will advance to EVRAA with the fire to win at Maasin City on February 28 to March 5, 2025.

PNHS Arnisadors dominate Elimination Rounds,
Dulay earns Finals berth

Following Juleydel Potot’s electrifying win in the Boys’ Pinweight Division, the Pambujan National High School (PNHS) Arnisadors, representing SISAROPA Legends (Unit 4) in the NSPAA Meet 2025 Arnis Tournament, maintained their fiery momentum in the Labanan or combative events. With Rihanna Cheska Dulay already advancing to the finals and others making their mark in the semifinals, PNHS proved to be a force to be reckoned with.

Dulay emerged as one of the day’s brightest stars in the Girls’ Pinweight Division. Her commanding performance earned her “bi” status, allowing her to skip the semifinals entirely and head straight to the championship match. She now awaits the victor of the showdown between Units 2 and 7, confident and ready to fight for gold.

The energy stayed high as Ash Cajosay took to the mats in the Boys’ Bantamweight Division. With sharp counters and calculated strikes, he dismantled his opponent from Unit 1, securing a well-deserved spot in the semifinals. Over in the Boys’ Featherweight Division, John David Baluyot displayed grit and precision, overpowering Unit 6 in a hard-fought battle to keep PNHS in contention.

Ann Chezka Tenedero continued the winning streak with an impressive performance in the Girls’ Featherweight Division. Facing a highly touted Unit 2 opponent—a former EVRAA qualifier—Tenedero rose to the challenge with a display of agility and focus that left the crowd in awe and her opponent out of contention.

In the Boys’ Extra Lightweight Division, Kian Brix Luna brought an edge of tactical brilliance, dismantling Unit 3 with pinpoint accuracy and a strong defensive front. Meanwhile, Rhian Infante in the Girls’ Extra Lightweight Division also earned the "bi" status at the elimination rounds, making her automatically advance to semifinals.

Unit 4 continued its impressive showing in the Half Lightweight Division. Robin John Luna delivered a thrilling performance against Unit 1 in the Boys’ category, while Trisha Grace Albes outmaneuvered Unit 2 in the Girls’ match. Both victories solidified PNHS’ dominance in this weight class.

With Dulay already awaiting her finals match and her teammates pushing forward into the semifinals, the PNHS Arnisadors have their eyes set on the triumph. Their unwavering determination and electrifying performances make it clear: this tournament is far from over, and the best is yet to come.

Will they continue their winning streak and advance to finals to bring home the gold? Stay tuned!

Joseh Osinaga ng PNHS, tangan ang bronze sa Chess, abante sa EVRAA

Matagumpay na naibulsa ni Joseh Osinaga ng unit 4 (PNHS) ang bronze medal sa Secondary Boys Standard Chess matapos talunin ang pambato ng Unit 7 na si France Deo Operario sa mahigpit na laban sa Round 4 ng Provincial Meet.

Bunga ng kanyang panalo sa Round 1, Round 3, at ang pinakahuling tagumpay sa Round 4, umangat si Osinaga sa ikatlong pwesto na nagsilbing tiket niya patungong EVRAA. Sa nasabing kumpetisyon, ang Top 3 mula sa kategoryang ito ang awtomatikong sasabak sa regional meet.

Hindi rito nagtapos ang tagumpay ng SISAROPA Legends, dahil nasungkit din ng Unit 4 ang gintong medalya sa Chess Standard Team. Kasama ni Osinaga sa panalo si Ronnie Ysmael Calvadores, na parehong nagsilbing matibay na haligi ng koponan.

Ang tagumpay na ito ay patunay ng matatag na disiplina at husay ni Osinaga sa larangan ng chess, isang hakbang palapit sa mas matinding laban sa EVRAA.
