Obet Vital will be departing the UE Lady Warriors ahead of the upcoming UAAP Season 87 women’s volleyball tournament.

Vital took over the reins for the Lady Warriors in Season 86 after head coach Jerry Yee was suspended by the UAAP for "acts inconsistent with the league's objectives."

Under his watch, UE finished with a 3-11 record, showing promising signs for the years to come with rookie sensation Casiey Dongallo leading the way.

Vital is yet to announce his next move after stepping down as head coach of the Lady Warriors.

As Season 87 rolls around, UE will look to turn its 3-11 record around with Dongallo and Jelai Gajero expected to once again deliver for the Recto-based squad.
