Team captain and Season 88 Finals MVP Shevana Laput, Angel Canino, Amie Provido, and Lyka Mae de Leon have committed to play for De La Salle University’s title defense in UAAP Season 89 women’s volleyball tournament.
In a social media post Tuesday, May 12, by Ang Pahayagang Plaridel, the school’s school publication, Laput vowed that she, alongside Canino, Provido, and de Leon will exhaust their final playing year.
“We wish you to see this legacy and we want to stay one more year,” said Laput days after the Lady Spikers’ Finals sweep of National University Lady Bulldogs last weekend.
The quartet played a key role in La Salle’s historic 16-0 campaign – the first time for the Taft-based crew – this year.
Canino, Laput, and Provido also shone individually, securing the 2nd Best Outside Spiker, Best Opposite Spiker, and 1st Best Middle Blocker, respectively.
It was La Salle’s 13th overall crown in the distaff side, all under seasoned mentor Ramil de Jesus.
Shane Reterta, Eshana Nunag, Lilay Del Castillo, Mikee Santos, Ashlee Buenaventura, Francesca Rodriguez, and the other young guns expected to reinforce the two-peat seeking La Salle.
