                    [Summary] => A breakthrough may be in the offing as the Philippine Athletics Track and Field Association, Inc. hopes to send at least six athletes to the Tokyo Olympics next year with pole vault qualifier E. J. Obiena leading the charge. If the quota is met, it will be the largest Filipino contingent in athletics since the 1984 Olympics where Lydia de Vega, Isidro del Prado, Elma Muros, Agripina de la Cruz, Hector Begeo and Leonardo Ilut competed for the country.
