“Since world championship na ‘to, sana bawat Pilipino kung ano ‘yung pinaramdam niyo sa women’s volleyball, sa Alas Pilipinas (Women), sana iparamdam din natin times ten sa men’s volleyball ngayong world championship dahil talaga alam ko maraming nakahanda sa kanilang programa, mga training camps, mga liga, in preparation of this league. Sana lahat ng mga hardwork at sacrifices nila, sana masuklian natin by supporting and watching them,” Laure said.
