Angge Poyos has put a brilliant rookie season behind and fully knows her new and bigger role for University of Santo Tomas.
“I have a growing responsibility to the team now,” Poyos told a pair of reporters in Filipino after leading the Growling Tigresses to a 25-12, 22-25, 13-25, 25-23, 15-13 escape act over bitter rival La Salle Wednesday night in Season 87 of the UAAP women’s volleyball tournament at Mall of Asia Arena.
The stalwart out of Bohol immediately became the foremost weapon of the Tigresses in her first year and even reset the rookie scoring record after dropping 31 points against Adamson.

MANILA, Philippines — Cassie Carballo admitted she had a hard time getting her rhythm in their first two games in the UAAP Season 87 women’s volleyball tournament.
With the trust of her coaches and teammates, Carballo paced the Tigresses to a come-from-behind 25-12, 22-25, 13-25, 25-23, 15-13 win over the De La Salle Lady Spikers for their second straight win on Wednesday at Mall of Asia Arena.
“The support system, especially the coaches, is really important. I wouldn’t be here if they didn’t trust me. That’s what I hold on to—the purpose we have. We always remind each other of it because it feels so much better to play when we know what we’re playing form,” said Carballo, who had 22 excellent sets on top of two points.
