MANILA, Philippines - Emilio Aguinaldo College turned back College of St. Benilde, 25-22, 23-25, 25-19, 25-20, yesterday to snare it first ever men’s title in the 90th NCAA volleyball tournament at The Arena in San Juan City.
Howard Mojica ,he league’s MVP, outduelled Johnvic de Guzman in the game that mattered most to help the Generals complete a 2-1 title romp and come away with their first ever crown since joining the league six seasons ago.
It was also EAC’s first ever championship in all sports in the seniors division. It’s other title came in high school volleyball where they reigned for three straight seasons before Perpetual Help took over this year.
A few days after scoring a series-high 33 hits in a 25-22, 21-25, 21-25, 25-15, 15-13 win in Game Two, the power-spiking Mojica was it again as he unleashed 28 this time, all on kills, that sealed the deal.
