MANILA, Philippines — Jaja Santiago, a Filipina undergoing naturalization process to become a Japanese, bared that she’s leaving the Saitama Ageo Medics of the Japan V. Premier League Division but did not disclose her immediate plans.
“I have been with the Ageo team for five years. Five seasons is no joke,” said Santiago.
“I have learned a lot. All my first times in pro volleyball happened here. I learned the discipline, the courage, the culture and definitely the heart of being a pro volleyball player.”
