Non- Philippine team members Brandon Sing, Skyler Claveria, Roanne Yu, and Precilla Aquino produced four gold medals each to mark the third day of swimming competitions in the 2014 Philippine National Games at the Rizal Memorial Pool.

Sing, a 16 year old high school graduate of Chiang Kai Shek, picked up his fourth gold in the boys’ 15 and over 50- meter backstroke in 29.76 seconds to add to his wins in the 200m back (2:21.42), 4x200m medley relay (2:01.42), and 100m back (1:04.24).

He broke his personal best of 29.85sec in the 50m back, a small feat for the upcoming Ateneo student this school year who dreamed of making into the Southeast Asian Age Group Swimming Championships next year.

“I’m pretty satisfied with how I fared this year. I think I performed better than last year,” said Sing, who will compete for Ateneo in the UAAP later this year.

It runs in the family.

Emily Jean Obiena - daughter of Emerson who once held the Philippine men’s pole vault record and sister of Ernest John “EJ” who tied the existing men’s pole vault record - broke the junior record for pole vault with her 3.20 meter effort at the Philsports oval during the 2014 Philippine National Games.

A strong early evening wind had just settled down when the five-foot-six Emily cleared 3.2 meters on her first attempt, and she did it with only her mother Jeannette watching from the sidelines.

The 16-year-old Obiena, a third year high school student at Chiang Kai Shek School, broke past the 3.10 meter mark twice that evening after she passed the bar at 3.15 meters.
