Sunday, January 13, 2008 Bare DCAA table tennis team bets By Marianne L. Saberon-Abalayan
THE Davao City Athletic Association (DCAA) bared its roster of players for the Davao Regional Athletic Association (Davraa) Meet on February 10 to 16 at the Mati Sports Complex in Mati, Davao Oriental.
Former Metro Davao Table Tennis Association (Medatta) president Friendee Nuñez is the coach the elementary girls team that will parade the services of Juvinel Gumahin, Jelmar Soriano, Issa Lee Darlo and Angelie Penecios.
The boys team is composed of Cloyd Jay Villamor, Francis Francisco, Celvin Paslangan and Godfrey Rex Cuizon.
But Nuñez, however, said earlier the elementary players need more training since they will have yet to see action in their first-ever Davraa Meet in Mati.
"May 50-50 tiyansa tayo sa elementary pero 90 percent tayong mag-champion sa secondary division (We have a 50-50 chance in the elementary category but we have 90 percent of winning the secondary championship)," he told Sun.Star Davao in text messages.
In the secondary division, Davao City is rooting on Lyndel Sellado, Mary Grace Luna, Loren Erika Mendiola and Jeziel Pepino in the girls event.
Palarong Pambansa medalist Zoren Patrick Mendiola leads the cast of the boys team that is also bannered by brothers Gil and Gene Ablanque and Ryan Datuin.
