00:01 [Anthony Ross] Maka Kapuso, nandito pa rin kamiyan sa Phil Oil Eco Oil Center sa Lungsod ng San Juan for another edition of your favorite sports and entertainment show.
00:09 My name is Anthon Ross. With me, of course, a man who has been working so hard. He covered the first game with our brother, Martin Javier, Coach Hammer, Martin Antonio.
00:18 What a day and what a first week of NCAA Volleyball.
00:21 [Martin Javier] Well, definitely ang ganda ng action natin for today. Of course, in the first game, CSB took care of business early.
00:26 Nagmamandali, parang may lakad na yung linggo. Etong Lady Blazers, they took care of business 3-0.
00:32 And then the Sunveda Lady Spikers, finally getting their first win in three tries in the Coach Edgar Barroga era at the expense of the San Sebastian Lady Staff.
00:42 I was wondering kung sino sa mga analysts yung magiging rason kung bakit tayo magkaka fifth set.
00:48 So, we welcome Mika Reyes. It's been a long time coming. Siya na lang yung huling analyst who's a really prominent name who hasn't ventured into this trade.
00:58 So, Mika Reyes being welcomed with a five-set match. First five-set match ng NCAA Season 99.
01:03 And we're not complaining because we love what San Sebastian and Sunveda showed today.
01:08 Ganda nga ng inilaro ng San Sebastian. Pero parang silang naging diesel noon. Mamaya hihimahimahin natin yan.
01:13 Pero they were able to get their bearings in the third and the fourth set.
01:16 Kaya lang kinapos sa dulo, and Angel Habacon, OMG! Ang ganda nang inilaro niya. And Lady Red Spiker, she's earning that victory.
01:25 When Martin Antonio says OMG, that's how you know how important what happened, happened was.
01:32 Alright, because a lot has happened. Let's review it for a week. Dito sa ating Week in Review.
01:41 Mga Kapuso, let's take a quick look back at the early goings of our brand new NCAA Volleyball Tournament here in the first edition of our Week in Review.
01:50 On opening day last Sunday, the Benild Lady Blazers began their quest for a three-peat on a high note as they dominated EAC 25-15, 25-14, 25-23.
02:01 Graduating middle blocker Mitch Gamit led the way for the Taft Avenue-based squad with 10 markers.
02:08 In the match that followed, Perpetual flexed their muscles against JRU winning 25-14, 25-14, 25-21.
02:17 Reigning league MVP Mary Rose Dapol top-scored for the Lady Altas with 16 points.
02:24 On Tuesday, Mapua outclassed San Sebastian with a 25-20, 25-23, 25-18 victory.
02:35 Sophomore Super Roxy De La Cruz exploded for 18 points to lead the Lady Cardinals.
02:41 After that, LPU needed four sets to dispatch San Beda 25-17, 13-25, 25-15, 25-21.
02:51 Joanne Duguna was the player of the match as she finished with a team-high 17 points.
03:00 On Wednesday, JRU left EAC 25-20, 25-20, 25-23.
03:07 Kyle La Hazareno led the attack of the Lady Bombers with 13 points.
03:13 After that, Coach Oliver Almadro's comeback in the NCAA was a success with a win over the Arellano in the match 16-25, 25-17, 25-17, 25-17.
03:27 Coach O was a Netran alumnus and became a player and assistant coach of his former mentor, Nes Pamilar.
03:35 And that, mga kapuso, were the results of the first three matchdays of NCAA Season 99.
03:42 Keep it right here on GTV for more volleyball updates and highlights of our new heroes of the game.
03:49 So my question to you, Coach Hammer, is among the matches that we did a recap on, what was your favorite?
03:56 Kasama ba yung five-setter natin ngayon? Kasi for me, that was one of the more exciting games this season.
04:02 Not because San Beto won, but again, San Beto was leading by two sets.
04:07 And then San Sebastian finally got their groove.
04:10 Direk Direk Kat Santos really putting on a show.
04:14 Angel Habacon sa kabila, Clay and Abraham also stepping up.
04:18 Maraming mga bagong pangalan yung heroes na antabayanan natin.
04:21 But that was one of my favorite games dahil back and forth yung laro.
04:24 What about player? Which player to you caught your attention and you were like, "Wow, this player has potential"?
04:31 Well, actually, nagpakita na 'to last year, Joe D'Aguino was very impressive for me in their past two wins.
04:39 Talagang siya yung nag-step up yung laro dahil mas malaking responsibility niya.
04:44 And meron din sa si Benilde, her game earlier.
04:48 But siya is next in line na 'to being that dominant and imposing middle blocker.
04:54 Because we know that this is the last year of Mitch Gamit.
04:57 And Mitch Gamit, we've talked about her character development.
05:01 And speaking of her, dahil magandang pinapakita niya,
05:04 siya po ang ating kaunaunahang Power Player of the Week for the year 2024.
05:15 The era of new heroes continues in Season 99.
05:18 And this time, it's her story that will unfold as the volleyball tournament has officially taken off.
05:25 Last April 7, the much-awaited opening ceremony took place with an exciting lineup of matches.
05:39 But perhaps the most anticipated storyline in this chapter of the NCAA features the reigning queens of the league,
05:46 the Benilde Lady Blazers.
05:48 The defending back-to-back champions began their quest for a three-peat
05:53 with an intact core led by setter Cloanne Mondonedo,
05:57 along with high-flyers Gail Pascual
06:00 "Reaching her presence belt here."
06:02 and Jade Hentapa.
06:05 Season 97 MVP, Micah Goh, finally made her return to the court as well.
06:10 However, among Coach Jerry Yee's collection of stars,
06:14 it was Mitch Gamit who shined the brightest.
06:17 "Bigla, bigla sila kumatras. But what a hit from Gamit!"
06:22 "Over the top!"
06:24 "Alam na, alam na na. Aray na, aray na na."
06:26 Gamit was a force to be reckoned with as she top-scored for the Lady Blazers with 10 points.
06:33 The graduating middle blocker led Benilde to their 30th straight victory in the NCAA
06:39 and more importantly, set the tone in their quest to become a dynasty.
06:44 All hail to our first NCAA Power Player of the Week for the year 2024,
06:51 Mitch Gamit!
06:59 Congratulations muli sa ating kauna-unahang Power Player of the Week for the year 2024,
07:04 Benilde's Mitch Gamit.
07:07 And from one middle blocker to another,
07:10 we have once again Micah Reyes with us here on Game On.
07:14 At nalaman natin na one of the reasons why Angel Habacon scored 25 points today
07:20 is because of the presence of one Micah Reyes.
07:24 Sobrang na-inspire itong si Angel, kaya naman we have on the show here on Game On,
07:28 Micah Reyes alongside Angel Habacon.
07:31 Yes, hello again.
07:32 Namiss niyo ba ako?
07:33 Nabiting ka ba yung 5 sets?
07:36 Sa ikaw Angel, nabiting ka ba yung 5 sets?
07:38 Yun na yun, tapos na yun.
07:40 Okay, so sa totoo lang, first time ni Micah mag-analyst.
07:48 So nagkataon na San Beda San Sebastian yung kinover niyang game.
07:52 So I wanna ask, when you first saw, na parang naglalaro ka sa court,
07:56 nakita mo, Micah Reyes ba yun?
07:58 Actually po, hindi po, hindi po napansin yung mga,
08:02 pagsabi na, pagsabi na, interview na ako dun,
08:05 si Micah Reyes po yung commentator, sabi ko, "Huh?"
08:08 Like, "Oh, naka-kaya na, huh? Why?"
08:11 What more kung alam mong si Micah yung commentator?
08:15 Ganiyan, baal lang yung D30 plus points.
08:18 Your reaction, Micah, na syempre, you know, matagal ka ng volleyball player
08:23 and now, you're inspiring the next generation, yan, yung mga batch ni Angel,
08:29 na to play well and, you know, to continue the tradition of increasing the level of volleyball dito sa Pilipinas.
08:35 Actually, I'm very flattered, yes.
08:38 Flattered ako na isidaw ako sa mga idol.
08:42 Pero, syempre, I'm very proud na makita yung mga players natin ngayon.
08:46 Sobrang tumataas na rin yung level of paglaro nila
08:49 and for sure, magiging maganda pa talaga yung mga laban sa upcoming games.
08:54 Coach, what can you say about Angel?
08:57 You know, you're nakababad ka sa San Beda, sa gym.
09:00 How is Angel's discipline in the weights room?
09:03 99 out of 100.
09:06 But, alam mo, ton, kasi si Angel was playing very well in the offseason.
09:11 And pagka nagkikita kami at pagka nagkakausap niya,
09:13 ano ang live news na nasabi sa kanya?
09:15 "Eto na yun, yung season niya."
09:16 Kasi matagal niya inantay ito.
09:18 Alam mo, Angel, you've done really well the past three games.
09:21 So ano yung mga makikita namin adjustments mo?
09:23 Kasi ngayon, meron na silang tape, panonoodin ka nila, scoutin ka nila.
09:27 And pag gusto mo papuntang pro, parang si ate Mika.
09:30 So ano yung mga adjustments pa na tingin mo kailangan mo ang gawin?
09:33 For me po sa ngayon, I don't have thoughts pa on going pro.
09:38 Kasi I feel like di pa po ako qualified doon,
09:41 so I need to work hard more pa.
09:44 And then, to team up with my teammates pa.
09:47 Since nag-judgel pa po kami ngayon.
09:49 So ang focus ko po ngayon is to help my teammates,
09:54 help my team to win another game,
09:56 to win the next games pa na lalaroin namin.
10:00 And I'm just there to remind them na i-enjoy lang lahat ng games.
10:05 Kasi volleyball is a fun event, so we need to enjoy and then have fun.
10:10 Kanina napansin namin ni Mika yung suot-suot mo na necklace.
10:15 Island Girl, kasi ako.
10:17 Puka shells.
10:18 Di ba uso yan yung time natin eh, di ba?
10:20 High school tayo, yan yung uso.
10:22 So I'm happy na binabalik ni Angel.
10:25 So Mika, ano masasabi mo sa fashion statement ni Angel?
10:29 Pano mo pa napansin?
10:31 Sabi mo, this is a sports and entertainment show, di ba?
10:35 So yung mga fits, oh.
10:37 So kailangan lagi mo nang isuot.
10:39 Ano ka ba, Angel bagay sa'yo.
10:41 Di ba?
10:42 May tangsa ba?
10:43 Island Girl from Bislig City, Surigao del Sur.
10:46 Uy, di ba si Scottie Thompson yun din? Bislig City, Surigao del Sur.
10:51 I think so, dun. Dun siya naglalaro ng mga...
10:53 Ah, di ba, Digos pala.
10:54 Digos si Scottie Thompson.
10:56 May kuha-tanong pa ako.
10:57 Si Payusing.
10:58 Oo, si James Payusing.
11:00 May question pa ako, Mika and Angel, pwede niyo doon sagutin.
11:02 Ganung importante yung relationship?
11:04 Sinabi nga ni Anton kanina sa coverage, yung setters.
11:07 Kasi ikaw marami kang setters na magagaling na pinagdaanan.
11:09 Si Angel, converted na spiker to setter si Kat.
11:13 Gano'ng laking adjustment yung ginawa mo?
11:15 Hindi naman. For the respect of Kat,
11:19 na-appreciate ko yung effort, na-appreciate ko yung improvement niya,
11:24 na-appreciate ko yung pagiging vocal and leadership niya sa loob ng court.
11:28 So for me, there's no really an adjustment.
11:31 Kailangan lang po talaga namin mag-communicate and the connection is there po.
11:35 Kasi kami po talaga yung parang close po talaga sa team.
11:38 So there's no any adjustment na po.
11:41 Kasi kung sasabihin niya, "Joel, doon ka."
11:44 So as a spiker, doon ka raga.
11:46 Kasi syempre sila po yung diktador sa loob ng court.
11:49 So parang wala lang po.
11:51 Parang yun lang po. Parang pagkakaintindihan lang po.
11:54 Yes, and personally, sabi ko nga rin kanina na
11:56 yung setter din kasi talaga yung magkocontrol ng laro.
11:59 So syempre kailangan mo rin syang tulungan, na bigyan mo rin syang nakumpiansan.
12:04 Nakapag-sinetang ka na maganda o panget man, susubukan mo talaga makakuha ng puntos.
12:08 And malaking tulong yun para sa setter mo.
12:11 Okay, so ngayon medyo ibubukin ko yung mga age natin.
12:15 Kasi this is three different generations.
12:18 There's the Anton and Hammer generation.
12:21 There's the Mika Reyes generation na kinover na natin.
12:24 And now this is the next generation, yung Angel Habaco generation.
12:27 Kinover na natin si Kiro Bacal.
12:29 Okay, Angel, how young were you when you first learned about Mika Reyes?
12:35 How old were you when you were starting to watch volleyball?
12:38 As far as I can remember, grade four.
12:42 Okay, nasa masal.
12:44 College na ako.
12:46 Syempre po, una-una, inspiration ko ba talaga si Eliza Valdez.
12:52 Yung rivalry, grabe yun.
12:55 Natutok yun, natutok natutok kami noon.
12:59 Sabi ko, grabe, nasa masal.
13:01 So I'm from nasal school din po.
13:03 So, animo ka?
13:05 Animo pwede naman siya.
13:07 Ano nga, nagyajoke siya. Animo sambenta, animo nasal.
13:11 So sa Ateneo Nasal, you were cheering for Mika.
13:14 Ateneo ba ako?
13:16 Okay lang.
13:18 Pero, pero, pero, pero, grabe.
13:20 Okay lang na lang.
13:23 Kasi sa amin, I'm from Lasal.
13:26 Tapos, I support ako sa Ateneo, pero grabe talaga yun.
13:29 Kasi pumunta kayo sa amin po.
13:31 Sino mo, pumunta ba kami sa inyo?
13:33 Wow.

13:37 Yung 10th year anniversary ng school namin, pumunta kayo dun.
13:40 Sabi siya.
13:42 Alam mo, Anton, sa mga reunions, and yung magandang masama natin sa Game On podcast natin.
13:47 Yung mga ganitong conversations na, I mean, new generation of players
13:52 na ina-idolize and then now, naku-cover na si Game On.
13:55 Halain mo, grade 4, pinapanood ni Angel si Mika in college.
13:58 Siguro kayo by that time, working na.
14:02 Yes, I was working. I was the one probably covering the game.
14:05 Ako yung commentator kasi Ateneo Nasal e.
14:08 Diba?
14:09 So ngayon, first time ni Mika.
14:10 Small world, small world.
14:11 It's a small world and we all come together here on Game On.
14:14 Angel, what can we expect pa from San Beda?
14:19 And would you like to see Mika again cover your game?
14:21 Oo, feel ko, ako.
14:23 Ate Mika, headhunting ko niya.
14:24 Oo, sure, sa Friday.
14:26 Ah, ito, ito, isa pa.
14:28 So I was asking Mika na sino yung naalala mo pag nakikita mo si Angel Habacon on the court?
14:34 Sabi niya, Sid Demecilio daw.
14:36 Yeah, kinala mo siya. Naalala mo siya.
14:38 So, ikaw naman.
14:40 Aside from Ate Aliza, do you pattern your game with anybody?
14:45 For now, I'm looking up to Cici Rondina.
14:50 Because the jump is so very...
14:54 (imitates jump)
14:55 (laughs)
14:56 Halimaw, halimaw.
14:58 (laughs)
14:59 Kaya I'm looking up to her, like, grabe talaga.
15:02 Okay, guys, since this is your first time on the show, we want to teach you how we do the extra.
15:07 So we turn our fingers like this and point to the camera when we do our final goodbyes sa lahat ng mga manonood.
15:14 So for Mika Reyes, for Angel Habacon and Coach Hammer Martin Antonio,
15:18 ako po si Anton Rojas.
