The top-seeded 14-year-old Gonzaga from Olongapo topped her age category and also ruled the 16-under class, emerging as the lone double champ in the Group 2 tournament presented by Dunlop.
Meanwhile, fifth-seeded Otoc defied expectations to claim the 14-U crown, halting Mariam Mokalam in the quarters, beating top seed Jan Gecosala in the semis before repulsing No. 4 Gil Niere in the final.
Gonzaga and Otoc shared the MVP honors.
