Morado: Winning just secondary in charity game
Jia Morado thought La Salle would sweep Ateneo on Sunday at Battle of the Rivals.
“I thought we’re gonna lose straight,” Morado admitted when asked if she expected a competitive match.
The Lady Eagles had every reason to roll over and die after losing the first two sets.
But Ateneo eventually figured things out and bucked its early struggles to pull off a thrilling win in a five-set classic.
“It took some feeling out process and adjustments, but we got our groove eventually. It felt great playing again with familiar people,” said Morado, who had previously played with almost everyone in the blue team except for Fille Cainglet-Cayetano.
The 22-year-old setter was vital for Ateneo’s rally, delivering 58 excellent sets, on top of her five points en route to being named Player of the Game.
