Controversies

Gorayeb, and volleyball referee Rodrigo Rojas were given a one-game suspension by the NCAA on December 15, 2015, after they involved in a "shouting" and "shoving" incident during the game between the Gorayeb-laden San Sebastian Stags and the defending NCAA women's volleyball champions Arellano Chiefs last December 12.[4]

He was also involved in a brawl between him, several players of Perpetual Help Altas basketball team and coach Frankie Lim during a volleyball match in 2011 at the San Beda Gym.[5]
