MANILA, Philippines – For the first time in nearly a decade, the Adamson Lady Falcons are marching their way to the UAAP women’s volleyball Final Four after downing the listless UP Fighting Maroons, 25-20, 27-25, 23-25, 25-15, in Season 85 action at the Mall of Asia Arena on Saturday, April 22.
Captain setter Louie Romero steered the Adamson offense with 23 excellent sets and 5 points, while Lucille Almonte led the balanced attacking party with 13 points. Super rookie Trisha Tubu and middle blocker Lorene Toring each scored 11, with the latter leading the team with 3 blocks. Although UP attempted to spark a late comeback, the hole it found itself in was too deep to rise from as Kate Santiago pounded home a kill for another 11-point gap, 24-13, before Tubu smashed a through-the-block hit for the win.
“We were a bit complacent, especially in the third set, that’s why UP got it. At least in the fourth, we delivered.”
