Colegio de San Juan de Letran officially booked a ticket to the Final Four after sweeping Jose Rizal University, 25-14, 25-20, 25-12, on Sunday in the NCAA Season 100 women’s volleyball tournament at the Filoil Centre in San Juan.

The victory also handed the Lady Knights (14-3) a twice-to-beat advantage, along with De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde (14-2).

For head coach Oliver Almadro, however, reaching the Final Four is just one step towards the fulfillment of a dream.

“Happy for that feat na two years na nakaabot kami sa Final Four is a blessing. We thank the Lord for the opportunity to be in the Final Four, but of course hindi siya natatapos sa pagiging Final Four. We have to put that goal into our dream, kumbaga dream namin mag-champion pero we have to put that goal na makalagpas muna sa semifinals,” Almadro told GMA News Online.

Judiel Nitura led the offense for the Intramuros crew with 17 points, all from attacks, while Vanessa Sarie had 13 points to go with five receptions.

Nicole Deala top-scored the Lady Bombers with seven points as they wrapped the season with three wins and 15 losses.

Letran, however, will still have to play Mapua University on Wednesday to determine its postseason position.
