FOR Jho Maraguinot, her third game in the ongoing 79th University Athletic Association of the Philippines women’s volleyball tournament last Sunday was a learning experience.
And, its not only her, but to most members of the Ateneo Lady Eagles as they rallied past Far Eastern University, 25-19, 24-26, 19-25, 25-16, 15-11.
“May adjustments kami,” said the Lady Eagles 5’7 outside hitter after the Lady Eagles booked their second win in three contests.
Maraguinot talked of the team’s experiences in that game after she was named one of the sports ambassadors with University of Santo Tomas’ EJ Laure and University of the Philippines’ Isa Molde.
She said the team is now adjusting with its rotation, and the team takes care of situations especially when their opponents are ahead.
“We are learning a lot from our second win. Natataranta kasi (team) dahil mas experienced sila (FEU),” added Maraguinot, now on her third season.
The Lady Eagles are the runners-up the La Salle Lady Green Spikers last season.
In that game, Maraguinot finished with 18 points, while Michelle Morente added 17 hits and 14 digs as the Lady Eagles.
She stepped up with skipper Jia Morado , who showed up sick, but was still exceptional with 53 excellent sets.
So far, National University is ahead after they beat Adamson University, 25-15, 25-22, 25-19.
Jaja Santiago fired seven of her 15 points from the service zone, including four aces in the Lady Bulldogs, who posted their third straight triumph with La Salle.
Jasmine Nabor tossed in 29 excellent sets.
