Transcript

00:00 You know, the improvement, the trajectory has been really going up for them.

00:04 Think about that statement that you just made on there.

00:06 You're talking about Angel Canino, a second-year player,

00:09 and yet, her effect while she was out,

00:13 that's how you can see the challenge.

00:16 And we're talking about the UP game.

00:18 Remember, Contra Vincent, he was not happy after that game,

00:21 and then it followed up.

00:23 And you know, talking about Lapot, it's just impressive how fast she has improved.

00:27 That's just amazing.

00:28 Not just the volleyball IQ, but also the athleticism.

00:31 Acting on this season, she's really been focusing on this co-captain role,

00:37 and it's enabled her to discover her leadership style,

00:40 which consists of a lot of one-on-one conversations with her Blue Eagles.

00:44 Leanne also emphasizes a lot of accountability within her squad,

00:49 saying, "I can't expect things from the team."

00:52 Always with the heavy serves, targeted serves.

00:56 Always wants to put their opponent out of system.

01:00 Like that. That's a perfect example of which.

01:04 And Lapot...

01:07 going over the blockers.

01:11 Lapot...

01:14 trying to save that one.

01:18 She's at number three.

01:20 She now has 100 coming into the game with 174 spikes.

01:24 She only had 77 last year.

01:27 Fabilo, in the meantime, is another example of a jump.

01:32 De Guzman with the approach. La Rosa saw that coming.

01:41 Gagate asking for it.

01:43 And De Guzman could not keep it in play.

01:45 Sorry, that's Tsunoshima, couldn't keep it in play.

01:48 From defense to offense.

01:52 De Guzman on the open, trying to go for the swipe.

01:55 La Rosa has been...

01:57 sharp, reading her.

02:00 Good first ball there.

02:08 But...

02:10 double block!

02:12 16-7!

02:14 Casey Cortez was the one who...

02:17 coached Suryo.

02:19 Coach Suryo...

02:21 also used a lot in that game.

02:24 Oh man, the blocking of De La Salle.

02:28 ...on the strength and blocking.

02:30 Just reading all the offense of Ateneo so well.

02:35 Two blockers again there against Leanda Guzman.

02:38 And this is also for La Salle throughout the years.

02:41 They really try to close down the leading scorer,

02:44 the leader of their opponent.

02:46 And right now, they are closing Leanda Guzman in that second attempt.

02:51 And Coronel and Gagate on this left pin here.

02:54 Look at them, they're almost not moving anymore.

02:57 And then obviously, as you know, Ariel...

02:59 EP Collegiate Volleyball, that's really foundational gears...

03:04 for these players.

03:06 Great point.

03:09 Coverage by Malaluan this time.

03:13 Lapu trying to identify that hole.

03:16 Malaluan goes cross.

03:21 Doromal was there waiting.

03:23 Doromal again, taking it straight in the chest.

03:28 But Ateneo unable to keep it up.

03:31 Misjudged it. - That's true.

03:34 Running attack.

03:37 Easy dump by Tea Gagate.

03:40 They did get the point anyway.

03:43 And the second referee didn't allow it anymore.

03:46 Off the rebound. Good reaction there.

03:49 Left hand dig by Guzman, but again...

03:53 Tox.

04:01 Coronel.

04:03 Lapu goes for the power tip.

04:09 Off the rebound. Doromal gets it.

04:12 Reverses to Tsurishima.

04:15 Good attack for them.

04:18 12 serving 23 here...

04:22 in the first.

04:24 Porvido still able to score, even with a deflection there.

04:32 Good pass.

04:38 And that was out.

04:40 Good angle there for Tsurishima.

04:44 That's true. And again, they won that game against UST.

04:49 That was a big win for them.

04:51 We were talking about it, you and I, when we were there at Ateneo.

04:57 Whoever is gonna be on the top seed.

04:59 You're gonna need that twice to be in advantage.

05:01 Whoever is number one.

05:03 As Gagate is on a mission today.

05:05 9 points.

05:07 The goal of Lasal is to set up Gagate.

05:10 And it has been working for them.

05:12 In previous matches, from going to the middles.

05:15 They've been so Shavanna Lapu.

05:18 That's true. Wing attackers.

05:20 But if they want the UST, they want everyone to be involved in attacking.

05:28 And you want Gagate, Porvido to produce points.

05:32 So that everyone is athletic.

05:34 With the protocols, with the digging and all of that.

05:36 So we probably are nearing that.

05:39 The time when she will come back.

05:41 And we will not be surprised if we see her next Sunday.

05:44 Her mom's presence alone helps Shavanna focus and give her best efforts.

05:48 Shavanna's mom also extends her maternal care to her teammates.

05:51 As she tries to be a mom for the ladies' bikers too.

05:54 Giving her motherly love and support wherever she can.

05:56 And whether good or bad game, Shavanna shared that she can't help but get emotional when she greets her mom.

06:01 As in her words, after a game, there's nothing like a mother's hug.

06:05 This report is brought to you by the Filipinas Live App.

06:09 Really high standards.

06:10 And again with how sharp Lazada is playing.

06:12 You know, Ateneo couldn't find their footing in this game.

06:15 Not yet for them.

06:17 Porvido.

06:25 Good coverage by Taks.

06:27 Sobi.

06:29 From behind.

06:30 La Rosa.

06:32 Sent back.

06:35 Julia will turn into striker here.

06:37 Then they open up to La Rosa on the other end.

06:39 Good blocking so far by Ateneo.

06:41 Porvido.

06:44 Nobody getting the second ball on the transition plays.

06:48 Cornell will go back to Laput.

06:56 Sent back to Lazada.

06:58 De Leon.

06:59 Lazada scrambling here.

07:00 Malaluan off the rebound.

07:01 Sobi.

07:02 That is near go time.

07:07 Malapit na.

07:09 Again, important game coming for them.

07:12 Wala ka namang plano sa linggo.

07:17 Everyone's gonna pause their life and sit down and watch volleyball on that day.

07:24 Covering UE and USDA.

07:26 And covering some prolific scorers.

07:29 Tongayo and Poyos.

07:32 Poyos again.

07:33 For that school.

07:35 Since we're showing her.

07:38 We'll give you some numbers in a bit.

07:42 Kagate in the meantime.

07:46 Malaluan crosses.

07:49 The only player in UAP women's history.

07:53 Scored 267.

07:56 These are this as a rookie, by the way.

07:59 Eliza Valdez as a rookie scored 200.

08:01 Faith Nesperos as a rookie scored 267.

08:05 That's a big number for a rookie.

08:07 Speaking of big numbers.

08:09 Laput continues to add on and rack it up.

08:13 He's serious about getting this one.

08:24 And I guess he wants to get it easily too.

08:26 Chance here.

08:28 Provido again.

08:29 Rolls into the other side.

08:31 The second attempt.

08:34 Spike of the set brought to you by Duncan Pasalubong of FAYA.

08:38 She's got five.

08:39 No one there on the side of Ateneo.

08:42 Going cross court for Provido.

08:44 A lot of adjustments.

08:46 In terms of players for Ateneo.

08:49 Casey Cortez.

08:52 To Buena for the rebound.

08:54 De Leon.

08:55 He's surprised to see.

08:57 I guess he has that departure really.

09:05 Working well for them and just being effective all throughout.

09:11 There's always a chance, right?

09:13 When he's in your corner.

09:15 He's going to come up with something.

09:17 It's quite of an off game for them.

09:31 Good serve.

09:36 La Rosa off the fingertips.

09:38 Drops it anyway.

09:40 Caramala again with another good pass.

09:48 As La Rosa and Pastriac.

09:50 Will collide.

09:52 Goes over.

09:54 Touches the net.

09:55 They'll be watching this game too.

09:57 And this is the game to watch too.

10:03 Because you're watching a sharp.

10:05 That's true.

10:06 You want to scout them at their best also, right?

10:09 The Guzman has been contained here in this match.

10:14 The Roman has been great for Ateneo.

10:17 That drops in.

10:19 About the biggest lessons she's learned this season.

10:28 86.

10:29 Zell told me while developing an aggressive skill set.

10:32 Is important.

10:33 An aggressive mindset.

10:35 AC guiding it to La Rosa.

10:37 It's a great set by Coronel.

10:41 Thank you very much, Patrice.

10:44 I have a question to you, connected to something like that.

10:47 Let's get through this rally first.

10:49 As La Rosa scores VLSU's fifth point.

10:53 When you're in the UAP, you're in their 13th game already.

10:57 Take me through.

10:59 You know, you're as a student.

11:01 Are you, what's he, are you hoping that it's over soon?

11:07 Or not like that.

11:08 But you know what I mean.

11:09 What are you guys feeling knowing that there's still school?

11:13 That's the goal.

11:14 But when Patrice mentioned that the word stress.

11:17 No, that's pretty normal.

11:19 We all know that because, you know, being a student athlete is no easy job.

11:24 You have to go to school.

11:25 You have to train.

11:26 Switch for more.

11:29 Switch for more details.

11:32 8-4 is our score.

11:34 Third set, LaSalle running along like a well-oiled engine.

11:39 Provido earlier with a powerful spike.

11:42 That's another one from Malia Malaluan.

11:44 Five serving nine.

11:55 Those of their own medicine here for De La Salle as they encounter.

12:00 Down three.

12:02 Laput from behind.

12:04 Back attack from Shevana gives her her ninth point of the match.

12:10 Gagate asking for it.

12:17 Oh, good.

12:18 Good reaction by Basia there to keep it up.

12:21 Surprisingly got the first one.

12:24 To get to it.

12:25 Desperos.

12:28 Teleon with a dig.

12:32 Minor.

12:34 Teleon with a pancake.

12:36 Malaluan gets us going for this rally.

12:39 Casey has set very well.

12:45 The last game against.

12:46 You see how they're a bit scrambling in defense.

12:52 Another good pass.

12:53 Lambert is denied by Minor.

12:56 3-0 run.

12:58 Desperos goes to De Leon.

13:06 And Gagate identifies the open spot.

13:10 Drops it.

13:12 15 serving 13.

13:14 Chance for a foul.

13:21 Chance ball for the white and green.

13:24 Underhand set to La Rosa.

13:26 Sent back. La Rosa with the reaction.

13:28 Chance to counter for the Blue Eagles.

13:31 They go to Leon.

13:32 Right behind the blockers.

13:33 Provido is there.

13:34 Laput.

13:36 Soft touch.

13:37 Denied and it bounces out.

13:50 1-2 play.

13:51 And Casey Cortez with the element of surprise.

13:55 16.

13:57 Desperos rolls it to the other side.

14:04 Smart.

14:05 But Coronel with the reaction here.

14:06 Chance again to attack.

14:07 Desperos looks at the defense.

14:09 Oh!

14:13 This one moves out.

14:15 Their form here in this match.

14:18 Against their collegiate rivals.

14:20 Spanos will continue to try.

14:26 Off the bench.

14:28 The push.

14:32 Why not?

14:35 Why not?

14:36 In front of her.

14:40 That's true.

14:41 Stepped up big today.

14:43 Bad pass.

14:46 He said no!

14:47 Miner.

14:49 Laput.

14:51 But it worked out.

14:52 With the adjustment by Shabana Laput.

14:56 Finding an open.

14:58 Don't let hold.
