Krog tops Under-17 of Tagaytay City Criterium
MARITANYA KROG continued to stamp her class in the local field as she ruled the women’s youth (Under-17) in Day One of the PhilCycling Tagaytay City Criterium 2025 that started and finished on Crisanto delos Reyes Avenue in front of the newly inaugurated Tagaytay CT Velodrome.
Ms. Krog ruled her division and checked in 39 seconds ahead of silver medalist Yvaine Osias and a little less than a minute over bronze winner Princess Jaydee Pancho.
It was another triumph for Ms. Krog, who has consistently topped PhilCycling’s national road races as well as the Batang Pinoy Nationals.
For her feat, Ms. Krog earned national ranking points on top of the P3,000 purse courtesy of the MVP Sports Foundation and Philippine Olympic Committee and PhilCycling Chief and host city Mayor Abraham Tolentino.
Ronnel Hualda, for his part, reigned supreme in the men’s masters B (40-up) ahead of Southeast Asian Games gold medalist Marc Galedo and Romeo Camingao.
Daniel Cortero, Jerick Cabael and DJ Perez finished 1-2-3 in the Men’s Youth (under 17) category, while Juan Carlos Barrios, Leonel Dimaano and Joey de los Reyes completed the podium in the Men’s Masters A (30-39) class.
Medals and cash prizes are at stake in the three-day event that also features races in the Men and Women Under-23 category on Thursday and Elite on Friday, besides PhilCycling national ranking points. — Joey Villar
