2019 Western Visayas Athletics Reports and Results

2019 Western Visayas Athletics Meet

Loading...

IF ANYONE HAS BOYS TRIPLE JUMP PLEASE EMAIL IT TO US

NB. Huergen Lachia won the Boys Triple Jump in 14.39m from Aklan Province

Due to the number of anomalies been fixed in the Western Visayas Athletics February 19-21 recently concluded in Roxas City, we will not be releasing the full results. As we are currently going through and moderating them. Results are being checked via video software. Not to mention premature releasing of the Results may induce a ‘Loly Scramble’ from opportunistic Manila College Coaches. So, in essence, it’s better to just drip feed results.

Please note that this meet is not sanctioned by PATAFA/IAAF so the times here cant r be used for National and National Junior Record purposes. I also would like to note some of the performances reported by various newspapers are also incorrect.

2019 Western Visayas Secondary Boys 100m

An example of why we should counter check hand times. At the recent WVRAA Regional athletic meet, Vince Buhayan (Iloilo) was given 10.12 in the 100 and 400 at 47.06. The 100 time is already below the 100m national record of Eric Cray. We know that Vince is nowhere near Eric Cray. So I checked the times using video software and I got 10.92 and 49.06. This still makes him the fastest hs in the country. But how on earth did a timer get from 47.06 to 49.06?? 2 seconds? Maybe they had an incoming voice mail that paused the stopwatch or something???

Anyway if we are going to use Hand times in rankings they need to be counter checked for accuracy. As you can see at regional Palaro there is a huge discrepancy inaccuracy.

Buhayan age really can’t be questioned as he has already represented the Philippines at ASEAN School Games which requires a valid NSO Birth Certificate. He is coached by former Junior stand out sprinter Benson Penarubia. Buhayan was the Palaro silver medalist in this event last year but his times put him on top so far.

1. Vince Jayson Bernal Buhayan (Iloilo) 10.92

2. Tristan Salazar Plotria (Negros Occ) 11.08 (10.94 ht)

3. Franz Noquid (Iloilo) 11.24 (11.15 ht)

4. Mark Dianilla (Negros Occ) 11.36 (11.22 ht)

** Please note I have no idea why the DEPED gave this time 10.12 (hand-timed), video timing showed a much more realistic 10.92 as Vince timed 10.6h last year at this meet. We will roll with 10.92.

Secondary Girls 100m

Trixie Dela Torre the ASEAN School Games in Long Jump. Clocked a 12.1 HT a followup from her 12.0 run at the Negros meet last year. It’s about equivalent to a 12.24 video Time. She beat her teammate Angel Ann Pranisa (aka. The Scientist) who is the Palaro Elementary Record Holder in the 100m. The issues with athletes being closer together with hand times are not enough time to stopwatches etc.

Video times

1. Trexie Dela Torre (Negros) 12.24

2. Angel Ann Pranisa (Negros) 12.35

3. Angelyn Ortiz (Iloilo) 12.44

4. Jezel Arellano (Iloilo) 12.48

12.878, 13.38, 13.41

Hand Times: 12.1, 12.5, 12.6, 13.0

**after having used the wrong video times have been moderated. Please note 2,3,4 were much closer than .5 between 2nd and 4th.

Secondary Boys 200 Meter Dash

Again like in the 100m there was problems with hand timing given Vince 20.88. A time just outside Trenten Beram 20.84 National Record or Not. Video analysis showed a slower but still a very impressive 21.75. The mark is below the 21.84 National Junior Record of Raul ‘Bato’ Abangan of 21.84 set in 35 years ago in 1984. Of course, proper electronics and a wind gauge will be required neither of which will probably be present at the Palaro for record performance. Vince being born in 2001 has another year to break that time.

Vince Buhayan timed 22.04 last year at this meet.

Video Times

1. 21.75 VJ Buhayan (Iloilo)

2. 22.45 Tristan Salazar Plotria (Negros Occ)

3. 22.63 Carl Galipo (Guimaras)

4. 22.71 Franze Noguid (Iloilo)

5. 23.01

Unsure of names of #5+ perhaps coaches can help out

Secondary Girls 200 Meter Finals

Angel Ann ‘Julian’ Pranisa had it easy with a win of 25.48 (adjusted from 24.9). The Palarong Pambansa Elementary Girls Record Holder.

Video Times

1. 25.48 Julian Pranisa (Negros)

2. 25.77 Jyzel Arellano (Iloilo)

3. 26.33 Rhea Borres (Capiz)

4. 26.42 Hannah Del Dalvo

HT: 24.9, 25.3, 25.5, 26.1

SECONDARY BOYS 400M FINALS

Vince Buhayan was given an incredible 47.06 by DEPED. Pinoyathletics has moderated the time with video software to 49.06. Still the fastest time in the country so far for 2019.

Video Times

1. Vince Jayson Bernal Buhayan (Iloilo) 49.06

2. Guen Delos santos (Iloilo) 49.50

3. Rome Ojeno (Negros Occ) 50.2

4. Renz Bandilla (Aklan) 52.6

**I’m not sure why the DEPED gave a ht of 47.1 for this race, that is a big 2-sec difference. Maybe the cellphone had a notification that stalled the timer. Anyway using video software was able to get a more accurate 49.06. Vince ran 50.5 last year so its a relative progression.

SECONDARY GIRLS 400M FINALS

Of all the 6 sprints, the Girls 400m was the only one that had no anomalies with timing. Bernalyn Bejoy of Negros was timed at 57.8, and the video time showed 57.82. Bejoy who has already represented the Philippines at several age grade meets and won silver and bronze medals. While Bejoy had run 57.5 2 years ago at the Negros Monthly Relays, and last year at the Negros Qualifier meet ran 57.9. If anything 2,3 were faster as the timekeepers seemed to focus on the winner.

Video Times

Bernalyn Bejoy (Negros) 57.82 Angelyn Ortiz (Iloilo) 59.85 Eden Cornelia (Iloilo) 60.35
