But despite falling short of an earning Final Four spot, Casiey Dongallo still saw positives from their stint.</p><div><a href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/sports/2024/4/22/amid-tough-rookie-year-the-dream-lives-on-for-ue-s-casiey-dongallo-1445"><strong></strong>READ: </a><a href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/sports/2024/4/22/amid-tough-rookie-year-the-dream-lives-on-for-ue-s-casiey-dongallo-1445">Casiey Dongallo and her rise in the UAAP<strong></strong></a></div><p>“Masaya naman, even though may kaming goal na hindi namin nagawa,” she said after her 28-point outing on Saturday after they defeated the UP Fighting Maroons.</p><p>“Sabi nga ni Doc [Obet Vital], parang itong season is setting the tone for next season. Ayun nga, knowing na na-injure po si Jelai [Gajero] before the season, so parang excited sa comeback niya next season,” she continued. </p><p>Nonetheless, Dongallo admitted that there were a lot of challenges for UE, including Gajero’s injury ahead of the UAAP tournament as well as Jerry Yee’s suspension mid-season. </p><p>“Sabi ko nga before, going to UE is a big challenge,” said Casiey, who currently holds the record for the most points scored by a rookie at 291. </p><p>“Ayun nga, syempre tinitignan din namin yung standings ng schools before bago kami pumasok sa isang university. Yung UE parang nasa seventh and eighth sila ganun, so para sakin challenge, siya na pumunta ka sa isang school na ganun yung standing.” </p><p>“Masaya naman kasi nabago naman namin and looking forward sa improvement kasi this season naka sixth place kami and looking forward sa Season 87 with the help of others </p><p>Aside from getting their best finish since Season 74 wherein they posted a 4-10 record, Dongallo and the Lady Warriors are also expecting the commitment of a number of players from California Academy — the school where Casiey, Gajero, Kizzie Madriaga, and Dr. Vital came from — and this gives UE more things to look forward to for next year.</p><p>“Sabi ni Doc, yung mga recruits namin, pati kung ano man po yung nangyari ngayong season, next season babaguhin na po namin. We will do more pa of course parang with the help of the management also,” she added. </p><p>She also expressed his appreciation for Dr. Vital who stepped up in the absence of Coach Yee.</p><p>“Syempre thank you [Coach Obet], thank you for not giving up on us. Kasi sa training, may time na parang matigas po talaga yung ulo namin. May plus and minus po kami sa training. Thankful lang po talaga kami kay Doc na hindi siya nag give up samin.” </p><p>“Hindi lang sa improvement namin, siya po talaga yun kasi hindi po siya nag give up samin,” Casiey added, while also showing love to their community.</p><p>“Thanks po sa UE community sa walang sawang suporta samin kahit manalo o matalo andun pa rin kayo,” said Dongallo.</p><p>“Thank you is not enough for you guys, ayun nga knowing na may sunod-sunod na talo kami pero andun pa rin kayo, hindi niyo kami iniwan ng dahil dun so thank you so much,” she ended. </p><div><strong>RELATED VIDEO:</strong></div><div><ivs-player data-ivs-key="e8c22c015ca9eafa76f1e3edfa03c603" data-ivs-spid="3001339" data-ivs-vid="3023981"></ivs-player></div><script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/loader.js"></script><div><br/></div>
