JAKARTA—A prepared and confident Philippine national athletics team — led by sprinter Eric Shauwn Cray and pole vaulter EJ Obiena — takes the track and field in the 2018 Asian Games at Gelora Bung Karno Main Complex here on Saturday.
Cray and Obiena, both coming off impressive performances in recent Asian tournaments, have the best chances of giving the country a medal in these Games, but Philippine Athletics Track and Field Association (PATAFA) president Philip Juico is hopeful that others on the team can deliver.
