Majoy Baron vows to rise to challenge in filling Mika Reyes’ shoes


Majoy Baron expressed her gratitude to PLDT head coach Rald Ricafort as she aims to fill the gaping hole left by Mika Reyes, who is set to miss the entire Premier Volleyball League All-Filipino Conference due to a right shoulder injury.

Ricafort earlier stated during the PVL Media Day that he is confident the former F2 Logistics middle blocker can compensate for the absence of Reyes.

“Of course, I’m thankful sa trust ni Coach Rald (Ricafort), kasi kahit sa training pinapakita niya sa akin yun and marami akong natututunan sa kanya since iba ang approach niya sa knowledge na mayroon na ako,” said Baron.

“Marami siyang natuturo na bago and mai-aapply sa system na gusto niya. Sobrang trust ko si coach Rald kung ano ang ipapagawa niya sa akin, ano ang role niya sa akin.”
