1/3 ICYMI | And the Gold Goes to: Shadow Casters Seal the Championship

Shadow Caster never showed a drastic bounce back against opponents as they dominated the court during the basketball tournament in Fisher Mall Malabon, February 28, 2026. They secured the title with a applaudable performance against the Primora Sentinels, who finished as first runner-up, while Sidlahara claimed third place after the exciting game of basketball.

The tournament opened with strong performance from early contenders, as Primora Sentinels secured a win over Kyomo Honotori, setting the tone for their finals run. Shadow Casters rapidly followed against Blazing Luminara, while Caspian Knights outplayed Aether to advance in the upper bracket.

Momentum continued in the upper bracket as Primora Sentinels overcame Sidlahara, while Shadow Casters proved their strength by defeating the Caspian Knights to move closer to the finals.

Meanwhile, in the lower bracket, Sidlahara stayed alive with a crucial win against Luminara. Blazing Luminara later bounced back by eliminating Aether, while Caspian Knights knocked out Kyomo Honotori with consistent and strong shooting skills.

As the competition progressed, Sidlahara delivered a key victory over Caspian Knights in the quarterfinals, earning a spot in the semifinals. However, their smooth run was halted by Primora Sentinels, who secured the spot for the finals against Shadow Casters.

At last, during the championship round, Shadow Casters showed strong will and dominance once more, defeating Primora Sentinels to claim the triumph and assert their confidence in the field full of formidable opponents.

Nag-alab na Labanan: Aether itinanghal na Overall Champion sa Matinding Torneo

Nagningas ang kompetisyon sa sunod-sunod na laro kung saan ipinamalas ng iba’t ibang koponan ang kanilang husay, determinasyon, at estratehiya sa loob ng court. Sa unang laban, nanaig ang Kyomo Honotori laban sa Caspian Knights sa iskor na 3-0. Sinundan ito ng panalo ng Luminara kontra Sidlahara, na nagtapos din sa 3-0, habang ang Aether ay umangat laban sa Primora Sentinels sa dikit na laban na 2-1.

Sa loser bracket, muling bumangon ang Primora Sentinels at tinalo ang Sidlahara sa iskor na 5-3. Samantala, nabawi ng Shadow Clusters ang laban kontra Kyomo Honotori sa 4-1. Sa matinding sagupaan ng mga kampeon, nanaig ang Aether laban sa Luminara sa iskor na 7-5.

Sa mga sumunod na laban, patuloy na nagpakitang gilas ang Luminara sa kanilang panalo laban sa Caspian Knights (6-4) at Primora Sentinels (7-1), habang ang Aether ay nagpatuloy rin sa kanilang dominasyon matapos talunin ang Shadow Clusters (4-3). Sa isa pang dikitang laban, tinalo ng Luminara ang Shadow Clusters sa iskor na 6-5.

Sa huling laban para sa kampeonato, muling nagharap ang Aether at Luminara. Sa kabila ng matinding habulan ng puntos, nanaig ang Aether sa iskor na 4-3. Sa huli, itinanghal ang Aether bilang overall championβ€”patunay sa kanilang tibay, galing, at hindi matatawarang determinasyon sa buong torneo.

Game 1: Caspian Knights vs. Sidlahara
Final tally: 13 - 22 β€” in favor of CASPIAN KNIGHTS

After an intense game during the brackets, Sidlahara vs. Caspian Knights plays as the first team to gamble their success in the Championship game. Sidlahara, who dominated the court during the bracket games, once again played on court. The question risesβ€” will they lead the court once again?.

The ball was heard on court, and team Caspian Knights being the first to touch the ball. The game being intense with only a few seconds in the game, player 23 of Caspian Knights dominated the game this time β€” with his build, along with his strong pushes, he conquered each dribble and shooters from the other team. With half the time gone, a score of 3 - 7 was on display on the monitor, being in favor of Caspian Knights, which later called for a timeout. Seconds later, the game resumes, and Caspian Knights once again dominate Sidlahara. Calling for the second timeout with a score of 3 - 13, in favor of Caspian Knights once again.

The game continued and a violation was ruled, which later, both teams redeemed this setback with a ruling of a clean game from team members. A jaw clenching game began, with only 50 seconds left on the clock, both teams gambled everything in themselves to score points in the game. Ending the game with a 13 - 22 score β€” in favor of Caspian Knights.

Game 2: Primora vs. Luminara β€” losers bracket
Final tally: 13 - 7 β€” in favor of LUMINARA

Game 2 was a game no one expected, but ultimately intrigued and excited to see – the game between Luminara and Primora, two teams who showed great skills and great matches going against one another. Two players, one from each team stood out the most; Bacud of Primora, and Flores of Luminara, both becoming a symbol of a great game and strong sportsmanship. One minute in the game, the monitor displayed a 5 - 1 score in favor of Luminara. With 6 minutes left on the clock, the score stayed still, a 5 - 2 score still being at play.

Most players from each team played a dramatic role in the game, quoting β€œLakas” from one of the audiences, a timeout was then called 5 minutes into the game – earning a short break for team Primora, while Luminara plans their game strategies. The last 5 minutes was a crucial one, and it being the activation key to the game becoming more intense as it progresses. A free-throw was then granted to Gozon of Luminara scoring a point and calling for the second timeout.

Back in the game, Gozon of Luminara then scores a point by pushing through the other team, leaving the score at a 8 - 5 score; once again being in favor of Luminara. 1 minute left, player Gozon of Luminara was deemed remarkable for his persistent shots and consistent throws, ending the game at a 13 - 7 score, earning another win for team Luminara for the losers bracket.

Game 3: Sidlahara vs. Luminara β€” losers bracket
Final tally: 14 - 16 β€” in favor of SIDLAHARA

And finally, the most anticipated game of the day – the battle of long-time rivals; Asterion and Kalig-on, teams Sidlahara and Luminara’s former team name during the 2025 Sportsfest. A minute in, team Sidlahara scored a point! Even after a series of fouls delivered.

The game continues with player Viala from Sidlahara throwing near shots and earning new points for the team. Team Sidlahara then calls for timeout for a substitute to enter the court, the game resumes with said substitute on play. A free-throw was then given to Gozon of Luminara after a penalty from the other team. With half the time gone, 5 - 6 score in favor of Sidlahara. Another free-throw was given to Gozon of Luminara once again after a delivered foul from Sidlahara. The game continued as usual, and the scores came closer to one another. 3 minutes left, a score of 7 - 9 was displayed on the monitor, once again being in favor of Sidlahara. The game gets intense as the clock ticks, a slight argument happens β€” is then resolved later on. With 1 minute remaining, Luminara calls for a timeout, a short time to rest and plan out their game. A score of 10 - 16 was displayed, Sidlahara still leading the game. Ending the game with only a few seconds, team Sidlahara delivered the final throw earning their 4th win and earning a 14 - 16 score.

Game 4: Sidlahara vs. Caspian Knights
Final tally:

Teams Sidlahara and Caspian Knights once again play against one another, the same routine follows: we play to win.

The first game became intense with only a few minutes in. Caspian Knights wanting to keep their streak, and Sidlahara wanting to break their streak. The game is a matter of strength and patience β€” patience to actually win and play a clean game. With only a few minutes left on the clock, the pressure grew bigger, and scores got higher. With 2 minutes left on the clock a score of 8 - 18 was flashed, 18 being Caspian Knights. As time grew more little, pressure grew more as the audience seemed to scream for more. Audiences from both sides of the game could be heard, chanting and screaming their chants and showing their support for their players. A few seconds left, a score of 8 - 20 was displayed β€” still in favor of Caspian Knights. Screams and exclaims got louder as Caspian Knights made the final blow, earning their spot as the Champions with a score of 9 - 20.

2/2 | ICYMI | GAME ON, THERESIANS!

St. Therese of the Child Jesus Academy, Inc. (STCJA) takes pride in officially opening its Sportsfest 2026 for Senior High School students at Fisher Mall Malabon. The 5th floor of the Fisher Court was filled with a radiance of vigor, confidence, and unity as teams wore their vibrant colors. These set the atmosphere of Theresians with a shared sense of goals and hopes in camaraderie.

The ceremony commenced with a moving doxology by the Himig Teresiano, followed by the introduction of each team per grade level. Setting the tone for the day’s program, MALPRISAA Gold Medalists and official representatives of the Schools Division of Malabon City (SDO) to NCR Palaro 2026: Kyle B. Hudar (Swimming), Chelsie Mae N. Ladia (Table Tennis), Reinan Julio F. Eusebio (Taekwondo), and Julia Rein F. Eusebio (Taekwondo), ignite the flame in the highly anticipated ceremonial torch lighting.

The Oath of Sportsmanship was then led by Karl-Ian A. Estrada (MALPRISAA Gold Medalist and official representative of SDO Malabon to NCR Palaro 2026), highlighting the importance and commitment of every player in a fair and sincere play.

With the formal opening speeches and oaths concluded, the Academic Head, Officer-in-Charge, and Sportsfest 2026 Overall Chairperson, Mr. Dario B. Serrano, officially transitioned the program into the steaming competition through expounding the criteria for judging and introducing the esteemed panel of judges.

The floor of the venue soon turned into a runway on the Search for Mr. and Miss Sportsfest 2026 where candidates showcased their walk of aura and energy through their production song number presented with Himig Teresiano. Wearing their teams’ represented sports attire, the candidates took their stage walk with every step claiming the hearts of the audience and captivating the attention of the judges.

Before the battle of the cheers began, the Supreme Secondary Learner Government (SSLG) Officers, along with some selected students, led the whole stadium in a solidarity dance. The whole Theresian community moved as one, emerging the inner unity of every student, parent, guardian, and teaching and non-teaching personnel.

The excitement has reached its peak as the cheerdance competitions kicked off. Seven teams conquered the floor and battled for cheerβ€”each one with their own stunts and blazing choreography. The sequence of the cheerdance started off with 11 TechPro ICT – Kyomo Honotori, followed by 11 TechPro HE – Caspian Knights, 12 ABM – Primora Sentinels, 12 GAS – Sidlahara, 11 ACAD ABM – Shadow Casters, 11 ACAD GAS - Aether, and last but not the least, 12 ICT/HE – Luminara.

After weeks of practice and propsmaking, each team executed their long-awaited cheerdance performance with boldness and power. While raising their colors up high, every performance filled the court with unforgettable beating of the drums, synchronizing with every audience’s heartbeat. As Mr. Dela Cruz quoted in his opening statement, β€œThat’s not just team spirit; that’s Senior High School dominance.”

While the judges decide on the winners for the day’s competitions, an intermission number was performed by Tanglaw Teresiano’s Aaron Miguel R. Palmores and Allexa Dhenisse Chua, performing their cover of β€œUpuan” by Gloc-9 ft. Jeazell Grutas. It was then followed by another intermission from the same club, showcasing their dance moves in their ex*****on of β€œClap Snap.” Their presentations subsided the spreading tension, yet every team’s desire grows stronger for a place in the podium.

Reaching the final climax of the program, the board of trustees, panel of judges, and parent council all gathered to announce the winners. Mrs. Prim, Mr. Serrano, and the panel of judges gathered in front to hand the awards. The stadium once filled with cheers and applause hushed in silence while waiting for the final verdict. The tally sheets are finalized and among the seven teams aiming for the win, only three would claim the victory this Sportsfest 2026.

Before the battle of the cheers began, the Supreme Secondary Learner Government (SSLG) Officers, along with some selected students, led the whole stadium in a solidarity dance. The whole Theresian community moved as one, emerging the inner unity of every student, parent, guardian, and teaching and non-teaching personnel.

The excitement has reached its peak as the cheerdance competitions kicked off. Seven teams conquered the floor and battled for cheerβ€”each one with their own stunts and blazing choreography. The sequence of the cheerdance started off with 11 TechPro ICT – Kyomo Honotori, followed by 11 TechPro HE – Caspian Knights, 12 ABM – Primora Sentinels, 12 GAS – Sidlahara, 11 ACAD ABM – Shadow Casters, 11 ACAD GAS - Aether, and last but not the least, 12 ICT/HE – Luminara.

After weeks of practice and propsmaking, each team executed their long-awaited cheerdance performance with boldness and power. While raising their colors up high, every performance filled the court with unforgettable beating of the drums, synchronizing with every audience’s heartbeat. As Mr. Dela Cruz quoted in his opening statement, β€œThat’s not just team spirit; that’s Senior High School dominance.”

While the judges decide on the winners for the day’s competitions, an intermission number was performed by Tanglaw Teresiano’s Aaron Miguel R. Palmores and Allexa Dhenisse Chua, performing their cover of β€œUpuan” by Gloc-9 ft. Jeazell Grutas. It was then followed by another intermission from the same club, showcasing their dance moves in their ex*****on of β€œClap Snap.” Their presentations subsided the spreading tension, yet every team’s desire grows stronger for a place in the podium.

Reaching the final climax of the program, the board of trustees, panel of judges, and parent council all gathered to announce the winners. Mrs. Prim, Mr. Serrano, and the panel of judges gathered in front to hand the awards. The stadium once filled with cheers and applause hushed in silence while waiting for the final verdict. The tally sheets are finalized and among the seven teams aiming for the win, only three would claim the victory this Sportsfest 2026.

No running, no jumpingβ€”just players using letters, plotting their next move.

The scrabble competition, one of the intellectual events of the sportsfest 2026, gathered students at the computer lab on February 10, where players competed by forming high-scoring words, testing not only their vocabulary but also their strategy and focus.

As the game started, the room was filled with silence, only the sound of keyboards clicking can be heard along with their eyes that shouts determination as they carefully study the words, weighing every move before playing a word that could change the score in an instant.

During the semi finals, one of the intense matches came during a close matchup between Team Kyomo Honotori and Primora Sentinels. As they tried to find words that would determine their chance of advancing to the final round, the scoreboard showed a nail-biting result. Kyomo's representative, Desabille, scored 112 points and Nava from Primora's edged ahead with 113 points. The one point difference kept the room on edge, proving that every letter and every word could change their score in an instant.

At the end, Edrich from Shadow Caster dominated the tile field with the score of 183 points. Nava from Primora Sentinels got 2nd Place and Ibas from Blazing Luminara got 3rd Place

In the girls’ division, Mara Cruz from Sidlahara claimed 1st place after showcasing exceptional strategic gameplay. Samarielly Lopez secured 2nd place, while Kristen Antonio earned 3rd place, both representing Primora Sentinels.

With every tile laid down on the screen, the competition reminded everyone that sportsfest is not just about the test of who’s the fastest, but also a test of intelligence and focus.

After all, in this game, the sharpest weapon isn’t speed but a well played word.
