With the recent victories of its men's and women's basketball teams, UAAP Season 76 Juniors Division Mythical Five member Dyke stated that they also wanted to achieve the same success of their ates and kuyas as it was a reminder for them that if they (Men's and women's) can do it, their team can do it as well. "Gusto din po namin na magaya ung pagka champion ng seniors kase po sila nagawa nila ibig sabihin po na kami rin kaya namin gawin."
Dyke who averaged 13.0ppg, 16.6rpg with 55.5% on FG last season also added that their coaches kept on reminding them that there was no need to be pressured by the accomplishments of their men's and women's but rather, just continue the winning attitude that they already have despite being a rookie-laden team this season. "Sabi po kasi nung coach namin na hindi po dapat kami mapressure dahil nagchampion ang NU Bulldogs and Lady Bulldogs, dapat pa po naming i-continue yung winning attitude namin kahit marami kaming rookies."
However, the sophomore power forward from Angeles Pampanga admitted that he, personally, would feel pressured at times but he made sure that he won't bring it to the games and would just focus on his role in the team to win and to defend their crown. "Minsan po pero hindi ko naman po nadadala yung pressure ko sa game, iniisip ko pa rin po yung kailangan po namin manalo at ma-defend yung title."
