Suzara: PH volley back in Asiad after 49 years

showing huge improvement so far.

Suzara said the youth power of Rotter and the wealth of experience of the Bagunas-Espejo combo could do wonders for the Philippines in an expected tough Asiad campaign.

“I think we’re back in the level of men’s volleyball. We have new young players coming in and with the experience of Bagunas and Espejo, it will drive more encouragement enthusiasm to our national team,” Suzara said. This time, the country will be in for a tall order in Hangzhou after being bunched with Volleyball Nations League bronze medalist and 16-time Asian Games champion Japan, SEA Games king Indonesia and Afghanistan.

“I hope that this will continue. I know we have a lot of work to do in many aspects,” Suzara said. “But we will get there.”
