MANILA, Philippines – La Salle super rookie Angel Canino once again set Lady Spikers’ fans abuzz after elevating her game anew at the expense of the Ateneo Blue Eagles in a rivalry long turned one-sided in favor of the green side.over Ateneo – a streak dating back to 2017 – the 19-year-old phenom reset her season-high mark with 23 big points in a convincing three-set rout on Sunday, March 5, in front of 10,754 fans at the Mall of Asia Arena.
Although the pride of Bacolod looked like she turned her first rivalry bout with Ateneo into a personal highlight reel, Canino admitted she was just trying to keep the magnitude of the moment at the back of her mind for the duration of the blowout. “I’m happy because it’s a different thing when you have a rivalry with a team,” Canino continued. “There’s pressure, but at the same time, we’re not letting it get to us. We’re happy we faced Ateneo. I’ve been waiting for this for a long time.”
“Angel is right, if you succumb to the pressure, you won’t perform well,” echoed La Salle interim head coach Noel Orcullo. “I commended them all because all of them stuck to our plan. What we studied for Ateneo during our viewing, we were at least able to apply it.”
