Apart from somewhat familiar names like Jov Fernandez and Chen Tagaod, Salak thrust a rookie core of libero Marga Encarnacion, middle blocker Mitzi Panangin, and spiker Alyzza Devosora to the spotlight. Asked why Salak stuck to her young guns in a must-win situation, the fiery mentor simply said, “They’re the ones there. Their presence got them there, so they’re my priority.
Encarnacion, who has yet to turn 19, made a huge difference on floor defense and anchored FEU in the clutch with 35 excellent digs and 12 excellent receptions, while Devosora and Panangin added 13 and 11 points, respectively.“I’m really happy because our coaches’ trust with us is huge. All our coaches and Coach T,” Encarnacion said in Filipino. “I didn’t expect I’d be able to do my very best. If not for the team, I couldn’t have done this.
