The University demonstrated its athletic prowess at the recently conducted Cagayan Valley Regional Association of State Universities and Colleges (CavRASUC) Sports Competition 2026. The University claimed a total of 272 medals across events, reflecting the discipline and grit of the student-athletes and coaches.

Team Wildcats reigned supreme, garnering gold in the following men’s events: aquatics, baseball, lawn tennis (doubles), archery (60m), arnis (pinweight and half-middleweight), 10km run, taekwondo (bantamweight), and pencak silat (tunggal). Meanwhile, the women’s team dominated table tennis and pencak silat, complemented by a stellar dancesport performance that yielded two gold medals in the Latin American Samba.

In the men’s division, the team secured a total of 170 medals, consisting of 26 golds, 31 silvers, and 113 bronzes. The team achieved an additional 102 medals in the women’s division with 8 golds, 26 silvers, and 68 bronzes, proving exemplary endurance and dedication in their respective fields.

A victory for one is a victory for all! Dr. Alfonso R. Simon, OIC President, and the QSU community proudly join the Wildcats Team in their moments of glory.

Special recognition is accorded to Mr. Jaimark P. Villamayor, University Director for Sports and Wellness; Dr. Nelson D. Guray, General Coach; and our Sports Coordinators: Ms. Edralyn G. Carillo (Diffun), Ms. Rodazen Mamaril (Cabarroguis), and Mr. Mark Constantine Villanueva (Maddela). They served as the vital link between campus preparations and tournament execution, ensuring that the athletes were primed for success. This feat was also fueled by the tireless support of our kitchen staff, drivers, medical team, documenters, and academic leaders.

Sincere gratitude is extended to Nueva Vizcaya State University, under the leadership of Dr. Wilfredo A. Dumale, Jr., for its excellent hosting of the 2026 CavRASUC Games.

Above all, the University conveys its heartfelt thanks and congratulations to all the athletes, trainers, and coaches across three campuses. Their excellent performance has brought immense honor to the University. Snappy salute to all of you!
