Sta. Cruz Green Eagles Defend Throne in Provincial Meet 2025
The Municipality of Sta. Cruz, Davao del Sur made history once again by defending its overall champion title at the Piskay 2025 Provincial Meet held over the weekend.
Carrying the moniker Green Eagles, Sta. Cruz athletes soared high in their respective sports, fueling a massive medal haul of 111 Gold, 100 Silver, and 54 Bronze medals.
Last year, Sta. Cruz marked a significant milestone in sports by winning its first overall title in the municipality's history.
All this glory was accomplished during the reign of Mayor Jose Nelson "Tata" Sala, who provided ample resources and support for the athletes' training and preparation.
Sta. Cruz is aiming for a three-peat as it hosts the Provincial Meet next year.
Mayor Sala personally received the award on behalf of the Sta. Cruz delegation, underscoring his commitment to local athletes.
District Supervisor Dr. Hazel Luna recounted that it was only under Mayor Sala's term that Sta. Cruz Green Eagles won back-to-back titles.
Mayor Sala, meanwhile, vowed to continue his support for the athletes of Sta. Cruz as they prepare for the Davao Regional Athletic Association (DAVRAA) Meet.
