"I am very proud of everybody," said UST head coach Rani Ortega. "What I told the team was they did not train for two weeks but they trained for two years. Kahit nung nag-start yung pandemic, we didn't stop training. Everybody did their part, having their online program from me and coach Junior (Reyes).

"One good thing about it is they worked on their individual weaknesses and kung saan pwede pa silang mag-improve. Kaya nung nagkita-kita kami, ang sabi lang namin, 'You are ready and in condition.'"
