Jeffrey Lepaopao and Charles Plaza beat JR Batulan and Jaja Vequezo to win the premier Men’s doubles Level C crown of the Birthday Bash and Smash: The Gloria Santos Invitational Badminton Tournament held last Saturday at the Racquetzone Badminton Courts in Montebello Villa Hotel.

Lepaopao and Plaza struggled in the first set before prevailing, 21-19 then won the title outright when their opponents refused to continue playing after Batulan, a former varsity player of the University of the Visayas, suffered cramps with the score tied at 8-all in the second set.

Lepaopao and Plaza shared the champion’s purse worth P5,000 and each received a trophy while Batulan and Vequezo settled for the P3,000 runner-up prize.
