Yup. Striker sa Silliman University mga around 90's.
In high school I think Silliman won the Coke-Go-for-Goal twice while he was the striker. Sayang walay news clippings I can quote from the internet. The years escape me pero I think they won the one in Davao.
I found 2 old school guys from SkyscraperCity talking about them. I know both Israel and Dandy, personally.

Don't forget Israel Ampong, Dandy Orbeta, Val & Alfie - they all played in the Philips Cup that plaxed second. If I'm not mistaken, Ampong was a member of the team that won the coke go for goal
If there will be a professional league, I hope it will be province based teams with corporate sponsors. For sure Negros Oriental team will be at least in the top 6.Can't post the thread link -- seems their site is down.Originally posted by Miguel
That would be Val Lachica and Alfie Caminos. Dumaguete used to be a host of a number of football tournaments during the late 90s including Philips Cup, Adidas Cup and Philippine Football League when most parts of the Philippines have gone gaga over basketball but Dumaguete remains to have solid fanatics for soccer.
I could still remember Silliman University was a force to reckon with in football that during the Philips Cup they whipped all of their opponents including those schools from the UAAP and NCAA and they have barged into the finals against University of Negros Occidental-Recoletos. The game was full of passion and intensity and the crowd was so into it, comparable to the crowd of the Azkal's game in Bacolod. The excitement is so electrifying. There were banging drums and fans have painted their faces. After 90 minutes, the game ended with a draw that they have to settle for a shootout. UNO-R eventually prevailed to the disappointment of the fans but overall it was a good game.
Silliman exacted their revenge againsts UNO-R in a game in Bacolod. UNO-R were bannered by the Fegideros who I believed was the first coach of the Azkals in 2006 while Silliman was reinforced by the Japenese student Sato(?). The recent crops of SU Teams were not as good as before despite the presence of Iranian and Korean students whose countries are soccer powerhouses in Asia. SU was also a multiple champion for Coke Go for Goal and Palarong Pambansa. I think the last time for the Coke Go for Goal was sometime in 2002 or 2004.
The Philippine Football League, which is already defunct, was also held in Dumaguete in 1999. Negros Oriental settled for 4th place while the champion was NCR. Surprisingly, some of their players were from Dumaguete and was coached by a Dumagueteno, the last name was Pinero. The games were broadcast on national TV and were even repeated a lot of times in cable, I think that was in Viva Channel.

congrats, all countries in the world find dragon boat racing to be super competitive. dragon boat racing is the most difficult sport in the world. you have different positions and you need many formations and tactics. it requires a lot of thinking and a lot of intelligence aside from stamina and skill. wow. and were champions. maybe thats why millions watch this sport.
