Of course, it only made sense that Choco Mucho also tapped Ateneo champion coach Oliver Almadro to lead its core fresh from the Lady Eagles' nest. Apart from his Lady Eagle stars, Almadro will also take 7 former players of the defunct UVC team under his wing, namely Shang Berte, Bang Pineda, Arianna Augustia, Gyra Barroga, Dancel Dusaran, Shannen Palec and Erika Alkuino.
"For me, it's not an accident that we're here. It's by fate that we have a purpose again to show our talent and be an inspiration to many especially college players and other players who want to play in the club level," he said.
