(UPDATE) SOUTHEAST Asian Games relay gold winner Frederick Ramirez delivered a pair of record-breaking feats to power Jose Rizal University (JRU) to a three-peat feat in centerpiece NCAA Season 99 track and field at the PhilSports Complex oval in Pasig City over the weekend.

Giving it all in his final season, Ramirez, 26, broke the 400m and 200m records in two of the three gold medals he snared in the three-day meet organized by a committee chaired by Herc Callanta of Lyceum of the Philippines University.

Ramirez clocked 46.95 seconds in the 400m to erase the 48.03 mark he set last year and then timed in 21.43 in the 200m to eclipse the 21.93 standard Russel Galleon of JRU registered six years ago.

Interestingly, the record-breakers by Ramirez, who also had a 4x400m relay gold and an 800m bronze, were just among the six marks the fell this season with the other four being Arellano U's Eugene Bongalos in pole vault, and Mapua's Leonard Grospe in high jump in seniors and JRU's Randy Degolacion in 800m and Perpetual Help's John Kervy Dianito in javelin in the juniors' side.

Ramirez's magnificence highlighted JRU's three-peat feat and the school's 10th overall.

It was a dominant effort by JRU as it tallied 826.5 points, way ahead of closest pursuers Mapua and AU, which wound up second and third with 584 and 540, respectively.

Grospe shared the spotlight with Ramirez, a fellow national team mainstay, as he swept all three jumping events — long jump, triple jump and high jump.

It was in high jump though where he drew most of the attention as he destroyed the old mark of 2.04 meters shared by John Paul Sale of Mapua, Adonis Cordero of JRU and Christian Dave Geraldino of Mapua by leaping to 2.05m.
