Four-time V-League champ UST hungry for more PERRY LEGASPI, GMANews.TV 06/17/2009 | 05:26 PM MANILA, Philippines - Minutes after bagging their fourth title in the Shakey's V-League, the Santo Tomas Tigresses are already looking forward to another crown in the country's premiere women's volley tournament.
"Hopefully, we could sustain our good performance in the next conference. We will try to improve in every game," said UST coach Cesael delos Santos, who dedicated their title victory over San Sebastian College to the Tigresses’ former coach August Sta. Maria.
It was Sta. Maria who steered the squad to their three previous championships before suffering from stroke in March last year.
While the fans were bracing for a tough battle , the Tigresses had a different plan, dominating the Lady Stags in three sets, 25-18, 25-20, 25-22, to win their no-tomorrow contest and the title Tuesday night at The Arena in San Juan.
With championship no. 4, UST became the winningest squad in the league, moving ahead of La Salle, with which it shared the distinction before Tuesday night's triumph.
However, the title did not come easily as most Tigresses fans had imagined.
After booking the top seeding in the eliminations and sweeping the quarterfinals, most thought that the Tigresses would easily dispose of the Lady Stags, whom UST had already defeated twice before the finals.
But San Sebastian, the no. 2 team after the eliminations, was raring to prove its mettle and it did just that with a 25-17, 25-22, 25-19 win in Game 1.
That surprising victory provided San Sebastian the chance to duplicate its victory over Santo Tomas in last season's second conference finals.
But the Game 1 defeat only made the Tigresses deadlier and quicker, if now wilder.
Showing the characters of a true Tigress on a hunt, UST forced the title series to its full route with a vengeful straight-set 25-21, 25-22, 25-23 win Sunday.
And the rest, as they say, is history.
"The key to our victory was our blocking, defense and our ability in hitting the ball well," explained Rhea Dimaculangan, who was the conference's top setter.
With Dimaculangan playing her role to the hilt, MVP Mary Jean Balse, Michelle Carolino, Aiza Maizo, Maika Ortiz and Bernice Co were able to do their thing well, hitting the opponents with well-positioned spikes.
And with only Co leaving the team this October, UST will keep and maintain all of its arsenals up to the next conference later this year, providing coach de los Santos the weapons he needs to vie for a back-to-back title.

Tigresses capture fourth V-League crown
By June Navarro Philippine Daily Inquirer
MANILA, Philippines - University of Santo Tomas validated its supremacy in the Shakey's V-League by walloping San Sebastian College, 25-18, 25-20, 25-22, on Tuesday for an unprecedented fourth tournament crown.
Jeered and cheered by an overflowing crowd at the Filoil Flying V Arena in San Juan, the Tigresses were simply unstoppable. UST now has the most number of championships won since the league began six years ago.
Rhea Dimaculangan set her teammates up for several decisive hits with the last excellent toss translated by skipper Aiza Maizo into a kill that cut a searing comeback by the Stags and pushed the Tigresses closer to the championship point.
Maizo's outstretched arms then deflected Joy Benito's attempt to knot the count from 23-24 in the third set that cemented UST's dominance in the first conference with a 2-1 victory over the Stags in the best-of-three finals.
”We're offering this victory to coach August Sta. Maria,'' said UST mentor Shaq Delos Santos, whose ravenous pack of Tigresses now topped the De La Salle Lady Archers' three championship titles.
UST is hoping their win in the tournament will inspire the team’s campaign in the forthcoming UAAP season. “Hopefully, in the upcoming UAAP, we will be able to win again since not most of our players played for this conference,” said Delos Santos.
Sta. Maria steered the Tigresses to their first three titles, the last coming in the 2007 second conference, before suffering a stroke in March 2008.
Tournament MVP Mary Jean Balse unloaded 18 points for the Tigresses, who got 73 excellent sets from Dimaculangan, the Finals MVP.
``When Ging (Balse) won the MVP, it kind of inspired us to play better,'' said the 18-year-old Dimaculangan, a former UST high school standout, who added she never expected to end up win the MVP award for the best-of-three series
Led by Thai import Jeng Bualee, the Stags stunned the Tigresses with a straight-set triumph in Game 1 but UST, motivated by Balse's second MVP crown, bounced back to even up the series.
The Tigresses exploited the Stags' poor reception in the opening set as they raced to a 14-7 spread on a kill by Maika Ortiz.
Gathering steam, the Stags persevered to stop the bleeding and cashed in on a Balse error to make it 17-19. But UST scored four straight hits on several setup plays by Dimaculangan to move ahead, 23-17, and eventually grab the set.
The Tigresses had a slow start in the second frame and allowed the Stags to charge ahead, 5-2, before Balse imposed her might on the net to spearhead a UST uprising that put them back on top, 17-12.
It was then that Bualee and Suzanne Roces buckled down to work, forcing a deadlock at 20 that could had gone all the way for the Stags. Bernice Co, however, abruptly snuffed SSC's chance to equalize with a set-winning ace in the second set.
