The Eastern Visayas Regional Athletic Asoociation (EVRAA) 2018 Official and Final Medal Tally (gold-silver-bronze) as of February 9, 2018 at Calbayog City, Samar:
1. Ormoc 109-56-74
2. Leyte 88-69-56
3. Maasin 24-35-30

10. Samar 7-12-18
11. Borongan 6-7-6
12. Southern Leyte 3-8-14
13. Catbalogan 3-6-13
Maasin City placed third overall even with a meager EVRAA budget allocation of P 2 million. It is the smallest division and the smallest and "poorest" LGU among the participating cities and provinces. They had only a ten-day concentration at the Tomas Oppus Pilot School.
Leyte has been training their athletes all year-round through with the well-funded Leyte Sports Academy. But this year, Ormoc dethroned Leyte as overall champion with their sportsman-mayor Richard Gomez who personally supervised the daily concentration of their players and hired national trainers. Ormoc led Leyte by 21 gold medals. The sugarland city is expected to maintain their top standing with Ormoc hosting next year's EVRAA 2019.
Southern Leyte placed 12th with just three gold medals to show. Their athletes need more support from the provincial LGU. Maasin City won 24 golds, mostly from athletics, arnis, and lawn tennis. Financially they were not well. But the trainers, coaches and especially the athletes were nurtured with love and attention. They were inspired by their second parents to strive for excellence for the love of the city, plus the full support of their real parents and active officials.
City Mayor Nikko Mercado, Vice Mayor Maloney Samaco, City Councilors and Maasin City Division officials joined the Maasin City delegation during the opening parade and ceremonies. This year’s EVRAA meet theme is “Sports, Culture, and Environment: Bridging the Gap, Shaping the Future.” The last time Calbayog hosted the regional sports event was in 2011.
About 8,000 coaches, assistants, officials and athletes converged for the region' s premiere sporting event from February 4-10. There were 13 delegations coming from eight cities and six provinces of Region 8. DepEd Assistant Secretary Revsee Escobedo was the guest of honor during the opening ceremonies, while Secretary Leonor Briones arrived on February 9 to greet the athletes and officials. All visitors were welcomed by City Mayor Ronaldo Aquino.
