National University has instated the chief tactician of its high school volleyball program as the new head coach of the Lady Bulldogs, replacing the beleaguered Roger Gorayeb.
According to a statement released to social media, NU named Raymund Castillo to take over post of Gorayeb, who resigned in April after failing to lead the Lady Bulldogs to the Final Four of the UAAP Season 79 women’s volleyball tournament.
Castillo will start his new job in Season 80.
“I am very honored to lead the women’s team but it is a very big responsibility,” said Castillo in the statement. “I believe our team has everything, skills and talent, we just need to give them the sense of purpose and learn how we can work together.”
Castillo will inherit a team Gorayeb polished that includes superstar Jaja Santiago, setter Jasmine Nabor, and reliable attackers Jorelle Singh and Risa Sato.
