LINGAYEN – Perlas’ Bea Tan and Dij Rodriguez rediscover their old form and captured the women’s championship while the comebacking pair of Mike Abria and Jade Becaldo took the men’s title in the Beach Volleyball Republic On Tour Lingayen Open on Wednesday at the Capitol Beachfront here.
Tan and Rodriguez won their third title in four legs this year at the expense of NU Boysen 1’s Roma Joy Doromal and Kly Orillaneda, 21-12, 21-15, while Abria and Becaldo, former two-time Boracay beach volleyball now representing Air Force, bested NU Boysen’s James Buytrago and Pol Salvador, 21-19, 21-18.
Both pairs went undefeated in five matches.
While Tan and Rodriguez cruised to victory to rebound from last weekend’s Dumaguete runner-up finish, Abria and Becaldo had to grind it out to beat Buytrago and Salvador in the Finals.
