Representing Phl team/City of Ilagan, Beram, 22, blazed his way to victory in 21.11 seconds, barely grazing the national record of 20.84 he himself set in last year’s SEA Games in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Cray took the silver in 21.79 seconds while Joan Caido of University of Baguio copped the bronze in 22.07 seconds. “If we didn’t drop the baton last night (Thursday), I wouldn’t have run faster today (yesterday),” said Beram. In women’s long jump, Torres-Sunang found little resistance and bagged the gold with a 6.16m leap. Army’s Aileen Tolentino took the women’s 1500m mint while Tara Borlain copped the gold in the same event in the girls’ section.
