Mikee Mojdeh banners MOS winners in Bangkok

(UPDATE) SWIM League Philippines ace swimmer Mikhael Jasper "Mikee" Mojdeh spearheaded the list of Most Outstanding Swimmer (MOS) awardees in the 2024 Asian Open School Invitational (AOSI) Aquatics Championships held at the Assumption University Aquatic Center Suvarnabhumi Campus in Bangkok, Thailand.

The Immaculate Heart of Mary College-Parañaque collected 205 points to secure the boys' eight-year division MOS trophy on his first-ever international stint.

Mojdeh made it by virtue of his impressive showing in the three-day meet, winning three gold and five bronze medals — all in personal best times.

"I am happy to make my best time, and also made a lot of new friends. Thank you, coach Jeremiah and coach Sherwyn. And to my parents (Joan and Modj). I will aim for more best time in my next competition," said Mojdeh.

The future water beast is the younger brother of Micaela Jasmine Mojdeh, World Junior Championships semifinalist and Philippine national junior record holder.

Besides Mikhael Jasper, nine more members of the strong SLP squad earned MOS awards, including Palarong Pambansa champion Aishel Cid Evangelista.

The Emilio Aguinaldo College standout got 217 points in the boys' 12-13 on three-gold, one-silver and three-bronze performance.
