Jerry Yee, the man behind De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde's four-peat run, said he is just grateful as the Lady Blazers remained on top of the NCAA women's volleyball.

Benilde swept Colegio de San Juan de Letran in Game 2 of the finals on June 11, 2025 to claim the title.

"Very grateful, very thankful," said Yee, who is also the team's consultant.

"'Yan ang goal eh, hindi naman one-time or two-time. Siguro as much as you can, if you can stay on top, 'yun ang goal," he said.

Unlike the previous seasons where Benilde swept the tournament to get the crown, the Lady Blazers absorbed two losses in the first round before returning to form just in time.

"'Yung girls, bata pa talaga mga 'yan. Naghanap tayo ng combination, buti 'yun nga, just in time, second round merong mga nag-step up," added Yee.

For him, however, the goal is to sustain -- or even improve -- its winning program.

"Hopefully we can sustain this, hopefully makapag-improve pa. It's more fun 'pag ganyan. If you win may players coming in, may support coming in, mas masarap," he said.

Head coach Onyok Getigan also shared Yee's sentiments.

"Kung nag-four-peat ka, 'yun (fifth title) ang kasunod. 'Yun ang challenge doon."
