Kinilala ng ilang beses ang kanyang hindi matatawarang husay at kabayanihan, si 30th Southeast Asian Games surfing champion at hero Roger Casugay ang itinanghal na ‘Athlete of the Month’ para sa buwan ng Disyembre ng Tabloids Organization in Philippine Sports (TOPS).

Nakamit ni Casugay, na binigyang papuri ng international surfing community para sa kanyang heroic act, ang isang gold medal sa surfing competition sa Monalisa Point sa San Juan, La Union Province.

Naibulsa ng 25-year-old Filipino champion ang ginto sa men’s longboard category sa iskor na 14.50 sa overall round, lamang ng tatlong puntos kay compatriot Rogelio ‘Jay-R’ Esquivel Jr. “It was truly a class act by Casugay,” pahayag ni TOPS President Ed Andaya.

Ayon pa kay Andaya, nagpaabot din ng appreciation si Indonesian President Joko Widodo sa Twitter sa kabayanihan niya, “to save an Indonesian athlete from falling in the middle of the SEA Games 2019 men’s longboard event.”

Personal ding pinili ni Philippine Sports Commission (PSC) William “Butch” Ramirez si Casugay para maging Philippines flag bearer sa SEAG closing ceremonies na ginanap sa New Clark City Athletics Stadium noong Dis. 11 bilang pagkilala sa kanyang sportsmanship.
