Not to spoil any strategy but Coach Ramil will try a different approach this. He will be using a 6-2 which will train Cha and Celine to be setter/spikers.

FEU will still be solid but they will have a problem in the middle area since only Mhica Morada can play good middle hitting.
Ateneo will likewise have a strong frontline with a very good setter and hard hitters in their rookies.

[don9632]

^ The 6-2 formation for La Salle will be good... Napansin ko din naman kasi during Season 70 that Celine Hernandez can also set good balls...

Uhmmm... If that's the case andami ng matatangkad na setters... There will be Denise Tan, Anna Camille Abanto, Charleen Cruz, and Celine Hernandez... Add Rhea Dimaculangan na din... I think she's 5'8", still tall for a regular setter... Hehehe...

Medyo mawawalan din pala ng playing time si Kaye Martinez next season... Pero okay lang naman, she got 4 remaining playing years...

[speaker]

^isang reason naman siguro kaya gusto gawin ni coach ramil yun is because maraming mawawala sa team for season 72. kaya gusto na niya lubusin at i-give way yung mga players na last playing years like manilla santos, celine hernandez, charleen cruz and michelle datuin. although there are rumors that after steph graduates this coming school year, their family is planning to migrate in singapore because her mother, lydia de vega is working there.

[bjzzz16]

astig!.. ganda ng Line-Up ng DLSU ah.. astig!

[don9632]

^ Yeah! Pero I think it could've been better if Carla Llaguno didn't decide to give up her last playing year... Pwede naman siya kahit libero... Hehehe

[speaker]

Carla will be a very big loss din po eh..dahil galng niya magdig at receive...kaya laking kawalan siya sa depensa

[bjzzz16]

and sa offense narin.. kasi prolific scorer din si carla sa green archers eh..

[don9632]

^ Yeah... Carla is DLSU's silent operator... Madalas she scores silently because although she does not hit as hard as Bernal and Balse, she often do smart plays and her long spikes are hard to dig...

Idagdag mo pa ang superb digging at receiving powers niya... I remember during the first round match of DLSU and UST, ang daming patay na spikes nina Bernal at Balse ang nadig niya ng walang hirap

[bjzzz16]

yhup.. and sabi niyo na.. she plays great defense.. and matangkad siya!

[speaker]

if ateneo will live up to expectations, meaning yung rookies po nila makakajive sa UAAP kagad, feel ko na ateneo-feu-la salle (parang men's basketball! haha) ang magiging top contenders next year sa ateneo kasi po, kung makikita niyo sa training ngayon ng ateneo, mas malakas pa po ata yung mga players para sa season 71 kesa sa season 70. no offense po sa uaap season 70 ateneo players ah.

[don9632]

^ I share the same sentiments...

My fearless forecast for the final four next season would be : FEU, ADMU, DLSU, and UST...

[Elvyol]

WOW, Nabuhay uli ang excitement ko sa UAAP! Medyo pinahinga ko pa man din muna. Andaming mga second liners/new players na madadagdag, can't wait to see how efficient sila sa mga given positions nila.

For FEU, na ku curious ako kay Samera kung anong magiging position niya sa FEU-WVT dahil matangkad siya. Pero agree ako sa Team Theory mo cheska ng FEU... maaaring yan nga ang maging starting.

GAH.. kelangan mag timpi. >_<;;
