College of Saint Benilde booked the last ticket to the next round after sweeping also-ran San Sebastian College, 25-19, 25-18, 25-20, in the 2024 Shakey’s Super League Collegiate Pre-season Championship Friday, Oct. 18, at the Rizal Memorial Coliseum.
The Lady Blazers displayed composure and maturity especially in the third set, staving off the Lady Stags’ desperate attempt to extend the match.
The veteran winger pounded 11 kills with one kill block and one ace for a game-high 13 points for the Lady Blazers. The reigning three-peat National Collegiate Athletic Association champion joined seven teams from the University Athletic Association of the Philippines in the playoffs of the tournament backed by Shakey’s Pizza Parlor, GCash, Chery Tiggo, F2 Logistics, Peri-Peri Charcoal Chicken, Potato Corner, R and B Milk Tea and Summit Water.
Clydel Catarig answered with a kill to ignite the Lady Blazers’ 4-0 closing barrage, which she punctuated with the match-clinching attack from the middle.“’Yan naman ang inaasahan ko sa kanila. Ganoon naman tayo, tuturuan sila ng tama and composure is a part of it. Also, matagal na tayo sa labas, sa SSL and other leagues so nakikita ko na nagma-mature naman sila, nagi-improve and nakikinig naman sila,” he said.
San Sebastian, led by Christina Marasigan’s nine points, ended its campaign winless in three outings.
