As of writing, FEU will have an interim coach in the form of Manolo Refugia.
“Coach Manolo Refugia will serve as the interim head coach of the team in the V-League Collegiate Challenge,” the school said.

Salak’s departure as head coach is not a new trend for the UAAP schools with coach Jerry Yee recently stepping down as Adamson mentor.
