For a young player just beginning his career, Shaina Nitura has shown much maturity in the way she offers Adamson in the UAAP Season 87 Women’s Volleyball Tournament.
After a fantastic debut in which Nitura easily shattered the rookie’s score record, the school’s homemade talent experienced her biggest challenges as she watched her surge of Falcons swept by the powerhouse La Salle in her final match.

It may be drawing from her youthful energy, but Nitura sees the obstacle as the evil needed to help her crew get better.
“We have to go through that kind of thing [losses] Nitura is not able to learn whether we will not go through these challenges after giving Adamson another power on Eastern University’s 25-20, 25-15 and 25-12 Driving at the Asian Arena mall on Wednesday.
“If you can’t know the loss, how do you know the win?” she added after allowing the Falcon to improve to a 2-1 (Winross) record, except for 11 excellent excavations of 16 attacks.

Rookie Falcon has proven her worth in three games that show why she’s captain of a crew who has lost so much talent since last season.
Brick wall
Due to her opening act at the college level, Nitura erupted 33 points and pulled the rug from under Ateneo before Adamson hit a brick wall with an Angel Canino-led lady spiker, where she was limited to 16 points.
However, that early challenge was welcomed as Nitura remained composed of trying to return school to a victory column on the other side of the Lady Warriors.
“There was no extra motivation today. How we face La Salle and Ateneo and how we stand in front of the other teams we face, it will be the same,” she said. “Maybe if we have to improve something in the last game, it will be our hunger level [to get the win]. ”
“We adjust that, but that’s not the reason. We need to be consistent because we need to get hungry, win or lose.”
This same maturity is what JP Yude saw in Nitura and what the rest of the league can see, so it’s no wonder why he has full trust in the ace.
“No. One thing I saw with Shina is her leadership. When it builds on her, she grows into something else like the way she handles things on and off the court with her teammates,” Yude said. “She’s dominant there and in her game.”

“As long as she becomes the right leader and her teammates are an example for her teammates, especially in the way she handles pressure because there are so many expectations,” Yude added. “But I always remind her to be myself and play the way she really is.”
