Philippine Normal University North Luzon took part in the grandest comeback of Cagayan Valley Regional Association of State Universities and Colleges (CaVRASUC) 2023 held at the Isabela State University- Ilagan Campus, City of Ilagan, Isabela on March 27-30.

With the theme “Harnessing Culture and Sports for Sustainable Development of Unified Region II,” 97 athletes and socio-cultural contenders from PNUNL clashed with different universities, state universities, and colleges around the region in this year’s sports and socio-cultural competition.

These are the following universities and colleges joined in CaVRASUC 2023: Batanes State College, Nueva Vizcaya State University, Quirino State University, Philippine Normal University North Luzon, and Isabela State University.

“Sports teaches us that hard work and perseverance pay off. Most importantly, sports build and reveal the person’s character because of the hours spent in training…,” said City Mayor Josemarie L. Diaz, as he expressed his welcome greetings to the delegates.

Furthermore, PNUNL delegates represented the university with their blue-colored hoodies and banners and prepared yell in the grand parade together with the other colleges and universities.

Dr. Leticia N. Aquino, Executive Director and Provost together with Dr. Madonna C. Gonzales, Dean of Academics, led the hoisting of the CaVRASUC banner for PNUNL.

Moreover, Roselle Manabat, a two-year Palarong Pambansa finalist, and Monique Moral, a three-year CaVRAA player, represented the university in lighting the friendship flame.

The program ended with the live performance of Ms. Sheryn Regis, a singer-songwriter, as the guest performer of the event and a fireworks show afterward.

Meanwhile, the ten pairs of candidates for Mr. and Ms. CaVRASUC 2023 showed an appearance on the stage before the grand coronation night tomorrow in Ilagan City Community Center at 7 pm.
