Star Aces Champion in Table Tennis
By: Royd Exequiel Dela Cruz
It was a clash between the Star Aces and Green Warriors in every championship round in men’s table tennis. That most heated game was between Star Aces, Royd Exequiel Dela Cruz and Green Warriors, Jason Dela Pena in men’s single.
Dela Cruz took the first two sets with 11-5 and 11-6, pressuring Dela Pena to win the third set else hand over the gold. Dela Pena made some headway by controlling the third set, 11-3, against the Star Aces. But before Dela Pena could even the score in the fourth set, Dela Cruz pounced at the Green Warrior with an 11-7 winning the victory for the Star Aces. Meanwhile, Mighty Hawks John Alvin Dela Cruz landed bronze.
In the end, the Star Aces and Green Warriors found themselves at the standoff again during the final of the men’s doubles and men’s team event.
