HOISTING the Philippine flag in the just-concluded 11th Asean+ Age-Group Championships at the Traveler's Hotel, Subic Freeport in Olongapo City, was his sweetest victory thus far.

Aglipay Arceno Oberio, who hails from the Island Garden City of Samal (Igacos), shared: "I'm so happy to win a gold medal and a silver for Team Philippines. It was my first-ever international competition. I'm so glad to have made my school, city and country proud."

J.O., as he wanted to be called, annexed a blitz team gold and a standard team silver in boys under-16 category.
