Those are words that have described University of the Philippines Fighting Maroon Louis Gamban, the colorful and fearless outside hitter of State U’s Men’s Volleyball Team .
Slightly built and spry, he surprised many with his awesome power. Spot-on skill let him nail clutch hit after clutch hit. He punished the volleyball as if it were a bratty child, then having scored, he’d walk off with a beauty queen strut and pout, diva-like, to the delight of the crowd. Suddenly, the UP MVT was making waves in volleyball, thanks in large part to Louis Gamban. The rising star who had played high school volley with the University of Perpetual Help, was set to embark on an illustrious career in UAAP volleyball. But alas, the pandemic happened.
Gamban, the former rookie, now team captain, didn’t disappoint. The moment he stepped on court, he had a sparkle and a bouncy energy that made it hard to take one’s eyes off him. He still strutted and pranced around the court in a happy dance, hit or miss. He still pouted at times. He still held his head high, diva-like, after a kill and a spike. But he was smiling more these days, playing his leader role to the hilt, with encouraging words and mother-hen protectiveness towards his teammates.
