MANILA, Philippines — Perpetual Help will try to accomplish what a few teams have done in the past as it seeks a rare triple kill in the finals of the 94th NCAA volleyball tournament at the Filoil Flying V Centre in San Juan City today. The Las Piñas-based school has sent its women’s, men’s and junior teams in the finals that put them in a position to win all three volleyball titles in a season. The Perpetual Help spikers can join an elite company that has scored an NCAA volleyball grand slam – Ateneo de Manila, a former league member, and San Sebastian. Perpetual Help could have a tougher time in the finals as the Lady Altas tackle a fancied AU side, which needed just a game to eliminate last year’s finalist San Beda to claim the first finals spot. “The girls didn’t give up and played with a big heart,” said Perpetual Help coach Macky Carino, who is out to steer the school to its first title since snaring a three-peat feat five years ago.
