Cebu Normal University hailed another king and queen as CAS beauty, Dulcelyn Insong and CN’s darling, Jorel Franco Antone Tangpuz was crowned as this year’s Mr. and Ms. CNU.

Insong, a Communication major could not believe her ears when she was called as the winner. She was not expecting to bring home the crown as she only wanted to enjoy the experience. She said that her family, friends and supporters motivated her to do her best in the competition. She also admitted having difficulties in her preparation with her being a senior and doing thesis. She had to make a lot of sacrifices.

Tangpuz on the other hand was able to secure his college’s 3-peat record. His predecessors, Azriel Marungdan and Dan Kyle Alinsug were able to nab the crown, and so did he. He said that there was a lot of pressure on his part because of the previous back-to-back win. The victory felt overwhelming. “Among all three candidates, I felt like I was the ugliest,” he added, laughing.

The jam packed Samuel McClintock hall exploded with cheers as the competing 8 ladies and 7 gents set the runway on fire with their sparkling red Filipinianas and barongs as well as their black one piece and trunk attire sponsored by Mr. Noel Inez during the Swimwear category.

However, the pageant was not without some problems. A mistake was made when Erika Fe Nacua of CNU-Medellin was called instead of Deanne Stephanie Hordista of CN during the announcement of the final 5 in the female category. Mr.Eric Remoroza, the event manager apologized for the mistake. It was due to some technical glitch in the Excel that an error was made.

The ladies who made it are as follows: Denise Nicole Valle of CAS (1st runner up), Jacklaine Rose Tuyco of CTE (2nd runner up), Deanne Stephanie Hordista of CN (3rd runner up) and Khelly Louise Tundag of CTE (4th runner up).

On the other hand, the runner ups for the misters are: Clyde Laurido of CTE (1st runner up), Hyveine Chris Pilapil of CAS (2nd runner up), John Dave Melencion of CTE (3rd runner up) and Melvin Paronel of CAS (4th runner up).

AN INTERVIEW WITH MEDELLIN AND BALAMBAN

With the 4-day long Intramurals 2017, athletes, some teachers and staff from CNU Balamban and Medellin packed their bags and stayed under the roof of CNU Main campus. The university allotted to them the second and third floor of the ASAB Building as their sleeping quarters.

 

"Mas accommodating nasiyakay di parehas sauna namaglisud mi sa water," Medellin SSG President ZheilResuera answered when asked about their week-long stay. She said that the athletes had to wake up at 3a.m. just to take a bath or wait until noon just to shower before. She even narrated having to sleep on plywoods before and was grateful that sleeping mats are now provided. Apparently, things have changed for the better.

Aires Cabalida, SSG Secretary of CNU Balamban shares the same delight.

​

"Nice siya. Wala mi biyaesaamung dean ug coaches," she said.

She also commended the efforts of the canteen staff for serving the food on time. She had no qualms about the past. The Main campus has always treated them well.

Resuera, however, shares her sentiments on how the Main students used to receive them.

"Naka-trigger sa conflict between CNU Medellin and Main kayang word nga 'taga-bukid'." She admitted that they had grudges about that.

​

"I think saintramsjudnakaydidtora man nasa word na 'taga-bukid'. Mura ugnahugna 'Hala, naanasadangmgataga-bukid ay.'" She emphasized.

But everything is fine now according to her. "Okay najudsiyakarun, accommodating naangtanan," she added, smiling.

​

When asked whether they are satisfied with the performance shown by their athletes "Of course, yes they exerted their efforts jud to the max jud. As in.Angkutobsailangmakaya."Cabalida said.

​

Resuera, on the other hand said that this is their best Intramurals so far. The Medellin team already garnered gold, silver and bronze medals. "So far, samgaduwa okay rajudsiya at least ma third or ma second dilijudingonngawalajudka place ba. Mas sakitnganaakasika-fifth niyakungkibawkanadapat mas ni thrive pa ka."

​

Resuera also share to us thelack of their resources, hampering their team to strive for gold. The Medellin placed third last year. She expressed their team's desire to achieve for more but their financial insufficiency held them back.

​

"Amo athletes karonwana provide-an ugpagkaon. Sabot mi daanbakayamora gung payment 100 niyapilaragud mi. 500 rakapin, pinakataaskay 888 niya tag 100 langniyaigora man gudnasaamoangmga expenses kanangparasa uniform. Na-satisfy gyudkokaybisanpa'gwa mi ka-provide ug food, naninguhalanggihapon. Mao jud nay grabenga payback samga athletes saamoakaynaninguha man pud mi ngamaka-uniform sila."Resuera said, recalling their struggles before making it here.
