LOCAL ace Samantha Ortega upset top seed Mary Brigoli in a grueling three-set quarterfinal battle then went on to capture the girls’ 18-under singles crown with a 6-0, 6-2 rout of Vinz Penalosa for a “double” in the Palawan Pawnshop-Palawan Express Pera Padala Mayor Aljun Diamante national juniors tennis tournament in Tuburan, Cebu, over the weekend.
