Team Review: San Sebastian Lady Stags

In spite of falling short in the last NCAA Season 91, the San Sebastian Lady Stags is showing continuous improvement with their performances in the ongoing Shakey’s V-League Collegiate Conference.

Based on what I observed in the performance of this team in the ongoing SVL Collegiate Conference, they become more solid and  the 2-time NCAA MVP Gretchel Soltones gets help from her teammates like Katherine Villegas , Alyssa Eroa and  Joyce Sta. Rita.

As of now, they are the most SOLID team in the NCAA Women’s Volleyball even though the Lady Blazers of College of Saint Benilde were the defending champs.  I was convinced to formulate this conclusion because of the big wins made by the squad from Recto, they swept the former UAAP Champions, Ateneo de Manila University Lady Eagles with a comeback win during the 3rd set and beats UAAP Teams like UST.

In spite of felling short in the last NCAA Season 91, the San Sebastian Lady Stags isshowing continuous improvement with their performances in the ongoing Shakey’s V-League Collegeiate Conference.

SOLTONES GETS BACK-UP

In the past NCAA Season, SSC-R swept the elimination but fell down in the hands of CSB Lady Blazers in the Finals series. Some analysts says and Coach Gorayeb always says to the girls from recto, “Tulungan niyo si Gretchel”. It’s been Gretchel Soltones who is the working wonder for the Lady Stag last season. And with the performance of the Lady Stags in the ongoing SVL Collegiate Conference, we saw a solid San Sebastian squad, almost everyone of us were contributing. I also saw some potential players  from them like Katherine Villegas, she is a smart player and can be a scorer too.  Aside from Villegas, Joyce Sta. Rita also shined for the Lady Stags especially in their game against TIP Lady Engineers, where she and Kath Villegas scored in double digits.

If this kind of performance showned by the Lady Stags will continue until the NCAA Season 92 Women’s Volleyball Tournament, they can regain and avenge for their heart breaking loss last season.

EROA’S VAST IMPROVEMENT

For me this girl gets better and better, in the past wins of the Lady Stags, her defense helped the Lady Stag to earn a victory. Currently, she’s #1 in terms of Digging, and #6 in receiving, not bad for a libero. I was impressed with her performance during their game against UST if I’m not mistaken, she produced 30 excellent digs and 13 excellent receptions in a 4-set game.
