Timeline
She was the first Filipina table tennis player to qualify in the Summer Olympics since its introduction in 1988 as a demonstration sport.
In preparation for the Olympic qualifiers, Lariba underwent training in South Korea and was trained by Korean coach Kwon Mi Sook.
Ian Nietes Lariba (October 13, 1994 – September 2, 2018) was a Filipino table tennis player.
Lariba was born in Cagayan de Oro on October 13, 1994.
She took up table tennis at age 9 with her parents encouraging her to take up "something new" for the summer.
Prior to taking up the sport, Lariba played badminton at a sports complex in Cagayan de Oro but found herself to be too small for the sport at that time.
At the age of 10, coach Noel Gonzales of the Philippine national table tennis team discovered Lariba while playing in the Palarong Pambansa.
Just a year after taking up table tennis, she started to participate in provincial and national competitions.
She also played for the varsity team of the Corpus Christi School.
Lariba attended De La Salle University for her college studies, majoring in management in financial institutions.
Lariba was also a varsity player for her university, De La Salle University playing at the UAAP Table tennis tournament.
She entered the table tennis team after being scouted in a national competition.
On her first season she was named as UAAP Season 74 Rookie of the Year and in the UAAP Season 75 her team won the championship and Lariba herself was named Most Valuable Player (MVP).
Her collegiate team fell short of winning the championship at UAAP Season 76, winning games only to suffer a sweeping loss to UP Lady Maroons in the final.
She led her team to win the championship at UAAP Season 77 and was awarded a second MVP recognition along with being named UAAP Athlete of the Year along with Hannah Dato of Ateneo de Manila University and Janelle Mae Frayna of Far Eastern University.
She again led her team to win the championship at UAAP Season 78 and was also named MVP once again.
She was also awarded as one of four student-athletes who won the Athlete of the Year award in Season 78, together with Alyssa Valdez and Jessie Lacuna of Ateneo de Manila University and Queeny Sabobo of Adamson University.
Lariba represented the Philippines in international table tennis competitions.
She also competed at the 2013 and 2015 Southeast Asian Games and qualified for the 2016 Summer Olympics through the Asian qualification tournament held in Hong Kong in April 2016.
She led the Philippine team to a first-place finish in Division 4 of the 2014 World Table Tennis Team Championships in Tokyo, Japan with Jamaica Sy.
She represented the Philippines in international tournaments and competed in the women's singles event at the 2016 Summer Olympics.
She also competed in the 2016 Asean University Games, her last tournament before the Olympics.
At the 2016 Summer Olympics, Lariba carried the Philippine flag as the delegation's flagbearer for the opening ceremony.
She was defeated by Han Xing of the Congo in the preliminary round.
In fact, after the Rio match game, she got a tattoo with the Olympic logo on her wrist.
She said that it is a once-in-a-lifetime experience for her, so she wanted to get a tattoo as her participation and remembrance of the international event.

In May 2017, Lariba was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia and underwent treatment that month.

Cancer cells were assessed to have spread to her brain and spinal cord.
