In a thrilling showcase of wit and athleticism, Mr. Emmanuel V. Sadoguio and Ms. Johanna C. Camarines were officially crowned Mr. and Ms. Laboratory High School (LHS) Intramurals 2024 during the coronation night held on October 21 at the University Gymnasium.

Sadoguio of Mondstadt and Camarines of Sumeru captivated both the audience and judges with their charisma and outstanding performances, ultimately securing these coveted titles for their teams and besting 14 other candidates.

This year’s pageant introduced a fresh approach with a range of categories—including production number, school uniform, sportswear, and team jersey attire—marking a departure from previous years when the event was known as Mr. and Ms. BiPSU-LHS.

Following her victory, Ms. Camarines expressed her surprise and gratitude. “I wasn’t aiming to win the crown, to be honest, since it was my first time participating in a pageant, so I didn’t expect too much,” she shared. “What mattered most was enjoying the journey and creating memories while preparing for the LHS Intramurals.”

Meanwhile, Mr. Sadoguio, who also took home awards for Best in School Uniform, Mr. Curacha, and Mr. RCA’s award, highlighted the importance of teamwork and support from his peers.

“Winning these titles means so much to me, but it’s really about the collective spirit we fostered as a team,” he said. “Together we supported each other every step of the way, and I’m grateful to have shared this journey with such talented individuals.”

Meanwhile, Nick Adriane T. Arcabado from Sumeru and Ysania Mackenzei B. Duterte of Inazuma claimed the 1st runner-up titles. Mr. Arcabado was awarded Best in Team Jersey Attire, Best in Production, and the Mr. Nails and Beauty Lounge award, while Ms. Duterte received awards for Best in Team Jersey Attire, Best in Production Number, and Ms. RCA’s minor awards.

Coming in as 2nd runners-up were Khen Lester M. Daños from Team Liyue and Krisha Mae S. Culaway from Team Mondstadt. Mr. Daños earned the titles of Best in Sports Attire and Mr. Photogenic, while Ms. Culaway was recognized with awards for Best in School Uniform, Ms. Curacha, Ms. Photogenic, Ms. Nails and Beauty Lounge, and Ms. Printfinity.

Moreover, Jhon Gebriel C. Baco and Mary Venice A. Caneja, both from Team Mondstadt, rounded out the top ranks as 3rd runners-up. Mr. Baco received the Mr. Printfinity award, and Ms. Caneja was honored with the Ms. Jusas award.

Additional awardees included Ms. Xyrell Javines from Team Liyue, who received Best in Sportswear, and Mr. Frank Eurri Garrido of Sumeru, who was awarded Mr. Jusas.

In this year’s intramurals, LHS students and faculty members were grouped into four teams: Mondstadt, Sumeru, Liyue, and Inazuma.
