UC aims to solidify lead in Smart tilt

THE UNIVERSITY of Cebu (UC) will be gunning for its second-straight win in as many outings in the cadet boys division when the 2013 Smart-Philippine Taekwondo League (PTL) resumes on Nov. 3 at the SM City Consolacion in northern Cebu.

The UC cadet boys squad with a clean 2-0 (win-loss) card is presently perched at the second spot of the cadet boys division in the tournament, which is being supported by the Philippine Sports Commission (PSC) and the Philippine Olympic Committee (POC).

A win by UC and a loss by the University of San Carlos (USC), who are also seeing action today versus separate foes, will put UC atop the division entering the final round on Nov. 17.

Set to meet the bets of UC in the 12-to-14-year-old cadet division is the Cebu Cherish team, which is currently at third place with a 2-1 chart.

USC, for its part, will target its third straight victory in as many games when it faces the Cabancalan National High School.

In the junior girls division, the Southwestern University (SWU) Lady Cobras will gun for its third straight victory when they battle the UC squad. /Correspondent Jade Violeta
