The horns of Rohan have sounded, the banners of Middle-earth have been raised, and the battles of the arena have come to an end. After days of fierce competition, teamwork, and unwavering spirit, one has emerged victorious, claiming the crown of the TCSHS Intramurals 2026.

From the golden woods of 𝗟𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗹ó𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻 to the halls of 𝗥𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗹𝗹, and from the mighty walls of 𝗚𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗼𝗿 to the fields of 𝗥𝗼𝗵𝗮𝗻, every team fought with courage, pride, and determination. Each match became another chapter in a story worthy of Middle-earth.

In the end, it was 𝐑𝐨𝐡𝐚𝐧 who rode into victory. Their journey reminds us that courage is not measured by the absence of challenge, but by the will to stand and fight through it.

𝗟𝗢𝗢𝗞 | Former DYDX: Radyo Batikan Showbiz News Reporter Ronesa Marie O. Sayon reflects on the journey that transformed teammates into family and journalism into a lifelong calling.

"𝙄𝙩 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙣𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙨𝙞𝙢𝙥𝙡𝙮 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙢𝙚𝙙𝙖𝙡𝙨 𝙤𝙧 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙧𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙜𝙣𝙞𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣. 𝙄𝙩 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙖𝙡𝙬𝙖𝙮𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙥𝙚𝙤𝙥𝙡𝙚 𝙗𝙚𝙨𝙞𝙙𝙚 𝙢𝙚."

She shared how a simple decision to audition for DYDX led to three consecutive years on the regional stage and a high school journey filled with unforgettable stories. Through every script, broadcast, competition, and challenge, Sayon realized that journalism is never defined by rankings alone. Rather, it is shaped by the character you build, the integrity you uphold, and the people who stand beside you through every triumph and setback.

For Sayon, the greatest lesson journalism offered was that while talent may open doors, it is humility, accountability, compassion, and teamwork that leave a lasting legacy.

The 𝗧𝗖𝗦𝗛𝗦 𝗦𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗼𝗹-𝗕𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 is happening 𝗧𝗢𝗠𝗢𝗥𝗥𝗢𝗪. Join The Equinox and discover that the greatest stories are often the ones you create together. 𝗦𝗲𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗼𝗻 𝗗-𝗗𝗮𝘆!

𝗟𝗢𝗢𝗞 | Former Online Publishing (English) member Samaya Nader Ahmed P. El Jamal reflects on the journey that taught her why perseverance is one of a journalist's greatest strengths.

"𝙏𝙤 𝙗𝙚 𝙝𝙤𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙩, 𝙄 𝙖𝙡𝙢𝙤𝙨𝙩 𝙜𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙖𝙡𝙡 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙪𝙥."

She shared how journalism began as just another extracurricular until life repeatedly led her back to it. From making history as an elementary editorial cartoonist to nearly walking away from journalism, El Jamal discovered that every challenge became a reason to keep going. As part of The Equinox's pioneering Online Publishing team, she and her teammates transformed uncertainty into triumph, proving that perseverance, teamwork, and belief can turn what once seemed impossible into reality. Through every failure, every practice, and every fresh start, she learned that the greatest success is not never falling, but always finding the courage to rise again.

The 𝗧𝗖𝗦𝗛𝗦 𝗦𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗼𝗹-𝗕𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 is happening in 𝗧𝗪𝗢 days. Whether you're joining because you have experience, because you're curious, or simply because you want to try something new, this could be the beginning of your own story. Let your voice make a difference with The Equinox. 𝗦𝗲𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗼𝗻 𝗗-𝗗𝗮𝘆!
