COMPETING in different disciplines, siblings Girvin and Gyneth Garcia sparkled on a bright and sunny Friday in the penultimate day of the First Asean Youth Archery Championships at the Dynamic Herb Sports Complex in Cebu City.
Reaport shot first and scored a 9, a feat matched by Garcia, whose arrow, however, was just slightly closer to the bulls-eye in finally winning the nerve-wracking encounter 29-29, 26-27, 27-26, 29-27, 9+ to 9 to enter the title match of the tournament organized by World Archery Philippines . There was also a surprise upset in the women’s under-21 recurve Olympic round finale, with OAC’s Charlene Santos dumping fancied teammate and world youth meet veteran Ada Lagrada 7-3 in tournament also supported by Benel Archery and Postal Science Corp.
“This must be my best Olympic round performance I’ve had so far in my career, knowing that I shot my best and Jonathan also shot his best,” said Garcia of his spine-tingling outing with Rapaport in the semifinals of the event also backed by Tangent.
