La Salle assistant coach Noel Orcullo, speaking for head coach Ramil De Jesus, said La Salle has yet to full adjust to the absence of the reigning MVP on the floor. FULL STORY
UAAP: La Salle survives anew without Angel Canino, outlasts UE
MANILA, Philippines–For the second straight game, La Salle showed up without its prolific hitter and luckily won by the skin of its teeth.

“It was a bad win. Although we won, it didn’t look good for us. I guess we are really being tested,” said La Salle assistant coach Noel Orcullo. They also narrowly escaped tailender University of the Philippines in four sets last time out. FULL STORY

Wake-up call a golden gift Tigresses are not wasting
Getting a wake-up call just before the Lenten break was probably the best thing that happened to University of Santo Tomas (UST) in Season 86 of the UAAP women’s volleyball tournament.
A 23-25, 25-17, 25-21, 25-20 back-to-earth beating taken at the hands of National University gave the Golden Tigresses something to reflect on and a firm idea on what they need to do for the remainder of the season.
