Defending champion BCT Aces, Brokenshire College Toril (BCT) men’s volleyball team, secured their first win by dominating force against Davao Wisdom Academy (DWA), 2–0 in DAPRISA Games ’23 Men’s Volleyball qualifying match held at the BCT Gym earlier.
Wearing jersey 11, BCT Aces’ Haspe launched a series of thunderous spikes propelling the team to take advantage and procure the first set of the game, 25–15.
In the second set, DWA started the game with 2 service aces courtesy of Serilla (jersey 24) taking the early lead by 2 points.
BCT Aces through the Duran’s smart hits quickly took over and advanced by multiple points.
Finally, assisted by BCT Aces’ Batulan and with fortunate over toss by Duran, the team claimed the second set, 25–18 and took their first win.
Coach Andres of the BCT Aces, assessing his team’s performance, said “Actually, okay man ang performance sa team. Pero mailhan jud nimo na nakulbaan pa ang mga bata, na overwhelmed sa ilang dula. Kinahanglan pag mga adjustments, kinahanglan pa sila pukawon na kaya ra kaayo ang kalaban, makita man nato sa tapad palang daan, [ug] ma-differentiate naman nato. Naa raman mi diri mo guide lang, as a coach.”
“Pinaka-una, siyempre, medyo nervous pa, daghan pag dapat ayohunon. Sa ako, personally, wala pud nako nahatag akong tinood jud na best, maskin among captain [Kent Panim], kabalo ko na dili pa na mao iyang dula, [ug] dili pa na tanan mao among dula,” commented Duran on the Aces’ performance.
This is BCT’s first win in the three qualifying matches. The team is scheduled for the next qualifying game tomorrow, October 25 against Philippine Academy of Sakya Davao, Inc. (PASDI).
