The University of Santo Tomas Golden Tigresses face a tight three-way tie at 6-4 in UAAP Season 88, trailing unbeaten La Salle and defending champion National University. Graduating captain Detdet Pepito continues to lead the team, reminding her teammates of their strengths and urging them to focus on what they are capable of rather than being intimidated by opponents. Pepito contributed 21 digs in UST’s home win over Far Eastern University, completing an elimination round sweep against a team they failed to beat last year. She emphasized learning from setbacks, such as their previous four-set loss to La Salle, and keeping a positive mindset to bounce back. The Tigresses are set to return to action on Easter Sunday against the University of the East at their home court, aiming to regain momentum in the season’s crucial stretch.
