UST alumna Eya Laure kept her firm belief in the Golden Tigresses after Angge Poyos’ injury derailed their bid for the title in UAAP Season 86, now staring at a 0-1 deficit in their best-of-three series against the NU Lady Bulldogs.
MANILA, Philippines –
“Pero alam ko naman na ilalaban yun ng UST kasi hindi lang naman si Poyos ang dahilan kung bakit sila nasa finals ngayon. Nasa finals sila kasi teamwork ang ginawa nila at hindi biro yun na young team sila na nakarating sa finals agad.”Knowing how it feels to lose in the biggest stage of collegiate volleyball, the Chery Tiggo Crossovers player said she is simply letting the UST players feel on their own.
Now with another chance at glory, Laure advised the current UST players to focus on the moment, rather than the bright lights of the finals. More than the title, Laure wants her juniors to play their own brand of volleyball on the biggest stage. Time will only tell if the Golden Tigresses can once again lean on the ace rookie when Game 2 unfurls on Wednesday, May 15, at the Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City.
