A tough end to Palarong Pambansa 2025 for Zach Cortez, but his spirit remains unbroken!

"It's sad that I'm going home with nothing. I'll be back stronger and better next year!" Despite ranking 5th in individual freestyle and not making it to finals in team poomsae with Fernando Uriat and Clint Magracia, Zach's determination inspires us all. We're incredibly proud of our Lipeño athlete for qualifying and competing against the best from 17 regions, the National Academy of Sports, and Philippine Schools Overseas.

Thank you, Zach, for representing Lipa City with pride! Mabuhay ka!
