The 19-year-old Cobb will once again get to steer La Salle when it takes on leader National U Saturday in the UAAP women’s volleyball at Filoil Flying V Centre.
The Lady Spikers suffered their first defeat in the tournament at the hands of the Lady Bulldogs, who are led by 6-foot-5 veteran national team stalwart Jaja Santiago.
“Right now we are like roller coaster, we need to improve on the endgame, that’s what we lacked,” said De Jesus.
