ICYMI. Ateneo rides a 31-point explosion from top scorer Faith Nisperos as it downs error-prone Adamson in a five-set thriller for solo fourth place in the UAAP standings. UAAPSeason84

MANILA, Philippines – Faith Nisperos had the game of her young life on Saturday, June 4, at the Mall of Asia Arena as the defending champion Ateneo Blue Eagles survived the gutsy Adamson Lady Falcons in a thrilling five-set finish, 24-26, 25-21, 25-19, 23-25, 19-17.

Ateneo now heads to its rivalry match against second-seeded La Salle on Tuesday, June 7, 4 pm, with much-needed momentum, while Adamson seeks to bounce back at the 6:30 pm main event and eliminate sixth-ranked UP in the process. Genesis even stole match point with a kill for the 17-16 Adamson lead, but a pair of Rizza Cruz attack errors proved too costly at that stage of the game as a final miscommunication on the Lady Falcons’ side ended a 3-0 error-laden run in favor of Ateneo.

“Nothing special, nothing spectacular. I just asked our players ever since we started a bit doubtful, but we’re getting our faith, and we’re getting our confidence.”
