Pila School Gains Semis in Toribio Volleyball Cup

San Antonio de Padua College High School girls volleyball team outplayed Holy Trinity Academy, 25-7, 25-17, yesterday to barge into the semifinal round of the 2006 Toribio Cup at the University of the East Caloocan Gym.

The three-time Milo Best Women's Volleyball League champion will battle Hope Christian School on December 3, 2006 at the UE Recto gym. University of the East will face University of Santo Tomas for the other championship slot.

San Antonio de Padua Raiders defeated Hope Christian School in the recently concluded Nestea Inter-Secondary Beach Volleyball tournament held at the La Salle Greenhills sand court and will try to beat the same school again. SAPC Raiders went home with the Beach volleyball crown last August with Hope Christian School placing second and UST, third.

En route to the Toribio cup semifinals, the SAPC Raiders defeated St Anthony School of Lagro and Valenzuela National High School in straight sets.

SAPC Raiders also won the Laguna Unit 3 Volleyball crown last November 11, 2006 and will represent Unit 3 in the Laguna Provincial Meet scheduled on December 5-8, 2006. The 2002 and 2003 Laguna Champion will attempt to regain the crown from University of Perpetual Help Biñan.
