For a student, there’s no better feeling than walking up the stage and receiving your diploma.
Graduation ceremonies are a special time for any student and none moreso than student-athletes.
And Mika Reyes is no exception.
Reyes spent five years in La Salle and during her time with the Lady Spikers she’s produced three titles and went to the finals five times.
Now, Reyes took her academic bow and graduated with a degree in Psychology and the middle blocker couldn’t be any happier.
Before she began her celebration, however, she first has to play in the opener of the Philippine Super Liga All-Filipino Conference.
“Sobrang sarap ng feeling na finally naka-graduate na ako pero, volleyball is life nga, so right after pumunta kaagad ako dito,” said Reyes Saturday at San Juan Arena.
Reyes had nine points for her troubles and F2 Logistics trumped Cignal 25-12, 23-25, 25-20, 25-11.
That was one Saturday to remember for Reyes, and just like her academic achievement, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime thing where she’ll be celebrating her team’s win and her own personal triumph.
“Mag celebrate kami siyempre once-in-a-lifetime lang ‘to hindi ko to palalampasin, five years kong hinintay ‘to,” said Reyes.
