BACOLOD City – Bacolod Tay Tung High School 16-Under Thunderbolts clinched the crown in the NEFVIE Age Group Volleyball Girls One Day League held recently at the Montalbo Volleyball Court here.
The 16-Under Thunderbolts claimed 16-and-under category championship following a 30-28 victory over Calvary Pontevedra in the one-game finale match.
Memielle Letran was named as Most Valuable Player, while Marishka Andrada was hailed Best Setter, Shannen Bañas as Best Libero, and Zelver Banguiao as Best Middle Blocker.

Bacolod Tay Tung’s 13-and-Under team, meanwhile, fell short of making it a double championship after dropping their championship match.
The Biboy Calamba-mentored squad fell short of clinching the 13-and-under title after losing to ICSA-Iloilo City in the finals.
“It was very unfortunate that we fell short, but this is a great learning experience for the players, who are mostly younger that 13 years,” Calamba said.
