ISA PANG LA SALLE KEY PLAYER UMAKYAT SA PRO

OPISYAL nang naging ika-4 na La Salle key player si libero Justine Jazareno na sumampa sa pro. 

Nagpasya si Jazareno na pabayaan na ang huling dalawang collegiate playing seasons upang maglaro para sa Premier Volleyball League club Akari.

“Of course, it was really hard for me to decide, knowing that the Lasallian community has been my family since I was a child, from La Salle all the way through college. Actually, it took me months to figure out what I needed for myself and to support my family,” pahayag ni Jazareno sa isang statement na inilabas ng kanyang agency na Virtual Playground noong Huwebes.

“Plus, this has been an eye-opener that this might be the opportunity to step out of my comfort zone. I can say that I really took time to think about it and weighed my priorities to help me come to this decision,” dagdag pa niya.

Si Jazareno ang ikalawang Lady Spiker na pumirma sa Chargers kasunod ni middle blocker Fifi Sharma, na umanib sa koponan noong nakaraang Hulyo.

Nauna nang nawala sa La Salle sina open spiker Jolina dela Cruz at Season 85 Finals MVP setter Mars Alba makaraang lumipat ang dalawa sa F2 Logistics.

Nagpasalamat si Jazareno sa mga panahong ginugol niya sa Lady Spikers. “This is something that will never leave me, which includes discipline, respect, perseverance, and a champion’s heart.”

Palalakasin ang floor defense ng Chargers na wala ngayong season, si Jazareno at tiyak na malaking tulong.

“I am super excited to be a part of the Akari Chargers, and I am looking forward to more bonding and learning from the team. During my first training with them, I felt a bit nervous because it’s a new team, but at the same time, I’m excited because the environment is new,” aniya.

“However, I have adjusted well with the team because they welcomed me warmly.”
