A VARSITARIAN sportswriter placed second in the Philippine Daily Inquirer (PDI) Libre Sportswriting competition last July 1.
Sportswriter Dino Paolo Maragay’s article was chosen out of 30 pieces by campus paper writers from De La Salle University, University of the East, Adamson University, Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila, Systems Technology Institute and San Sebastian. The competition’s first placer was a writer from the UP Collegian.
The participants were asked to write about the UST and De La Salle final tussle in the “Shakey’s V-League” tournament. They were given 45 minutes immediately after the game to write the article.
Seminars were also held last June 28 and 29 before the competition, with different seasoned sports writers like Philip Juico, Mico Halili, and Recah Trinidad as speakers. Jose Bimbo F. Santos
