Blue Marlins Ride the Wave to Gold: NISU outplays CHMSU in softball championship showdown
 
 
 
In a twice-to-beat championship game, the Northern Iloilo State University (NISU) Blue Marlins softball team emerged victorious against Carlos Hilado Memorial State University (CHMSU) in a 5-3 score held at the Iloilo State University of Fisheries Science and Technology (ISUFST) Dumangas Campus on December 20.
 
Despite the initial setback on the first game, the Blue Marlins rebounded impressively after tactical shifts, allowing them to dominate the Visayan Spotted Dear of CHMSU in the game, which paved the way to gold.
 
In an exclusive interview with the trainer, Mark Lester Deximo, he shared what strategic adjustments are made after losing and how mental fortitude is a vital tool in winning.
 
"First and foremost, it all comes down to self-confidence. After the first game, I took the time to speak with the players and motivate them, as I noticed they were putting a lot of pressure on themselves. We also made some crucial adjustments to our strategies," Deximo stated.
 
"In the second game, they truly stepped up and executed our game plan with precision," he added, highlighting the team's growth and development in making sure to bring home the gold.
 
Further, the Blue Marlins softball team will compete at the National State Colleges and Universities Athletic Association (NSCUAA), representing the Western Visayas.
 
 

 

Northern Iloilo State University is deeply mournful of the passing of Dr. Zinnia Parcon Teruel, former Regional Director of the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) Region VI and former Board of Trustee Member of the Northern Iloilo Polytechnic State College (now NISU). Her loss leaves an immense void in the hearts of all who had the honor of working with her, and her remarkable contributions to both science and education will be forever remembered.
Throughout her career, Dr. Teruel was a visionary, dedicating her efforts to advancing science, technology, and education in the region. Her impact also extended to higher education, where, as a member of the NIPSC Board of Trustees, she played an instrumental role in shaping the future of the institution. Her legacy continues to inspire and guide future generations of students, faculty, and staff.
During this time of sorrow, we extend our deepest condolences to her family, friends, colleagues, and all who were touched by her presence. Her kindness, selflessness, and ability to inspire others forged enduring relationships with all who were fortunate to know her. While Dr. Teruel may no longer be with us, her legacy will live on through the countless lives she impacted and the lasting difference she made in her community, her country, and the fields of science and education.
May her soul rest in peace. Her leadership, dedication, and compassion will always be cherished, and she will be deeply missed.
