Aga and Gretchen
Volleyball is on the rise in our
country and one thing that made the sport’s sudden popularity is the Ateneo
Lady Eagles which is easily the most popular Women’s team in the country. One
can argue that the DLSU Lady Spikers are more popular but remember, they have
been in the finals the past four years and it was only when the Lady Eagles
became a contender that the San juan arena eventually played to a packed
audience which eventually led to games at the MOA Arena and Big dome and in those games the Ateneo Lady Eagles were the main draw.
Gretchen with Coach Philip S.
If the Lady Eagles are the most
popular team in Volleyball, you can credit half of that to their most popular
player – Gretchen Ho. Gretchen has
recently been getting so much attention and giving the Sport of Volleyball a
new face. Were you able to see her Safeguard commercial? Watch out for her
because there will definitely be a lot more coming.
The Lady Olympians with G.
That is why when the most popular
spiker says Yes to an invitation join the team lunch of the STI College
Olympians Men’s and Women’s Volleyball team, it is definitely something to be
thankful about. I just don’t know if she knows how much she has inspired the
guys who were there to have lunch with her.
Our team may not be the best or even far from being one, but one thing
that these Olympians are is that they love the sport of volleyball. That is why
Gretchen’s presence and the opportunity to talk to her gave these young
volleyball lovers something to be happy about.
The Men's team with G
As we bid Gretchen good luck to
her career, we just hope that there will be chances to watch her play
volleyball again. I just can’t imagine the UAAP without her. Thanks for joining us and we pray that you
inspire more kids to play volleyball with the same passion you had when you
once played it.
