Roncal, who stands a 5-foot-7-inches tall, started playing volleyball at the age of 12. The reason? “To make my 12-year-old self proud,” she said. 

Roncal wants to become a professional volleyball player so she can provide comfortable living for her family. She also has a brother who plays basketball and used to suit up for SWU-Phinma. His name is Dyll Roncal, who was part of the 2019 Cesafi men’s basketball tournament champions Cobras.

Rosyll, meanwhile, looks up to Nootsara Tomkom of Thailand and Jia Morado of the Philippines as her volleyball idols.

For those aspiring student-athletes, this is her message: “ALWAYS trust the process and never give up easily; remember: you are more than what you think you are.”
