Coming into this game the National University Lady bulldogs is still looking for the elusive win in this season while UST are looking for their 10th win at the start of the match.
Very early on the game Dindin Santiago had a minor injury when she accidentally stepped on Mervic Mangui's foot which crossed over UST's court after an attack. Santiago had to be pulled out and replaced by Mance. Getting only a minor sprain, hopefully Santiago will be back for the remaining all-important games by the lady tigresses.
The first set was almost taken by the lady bulldogs but won over by UST, 27-25. The lady tigresses showed its winning form as they took the 2nd and 3rd set, 25-12 and 25-14, respectively.
Dimaculangan and Maizo came late as they have prior school commitments giving way to other young players.
On the other side, Mangui still proves to be NU's key player as she made most of the points. Simon came late, joining on the 3rd set already. Libero Reyes generally showed excellent skills in floor defense for the lady bulldogs.
Player of the game: Angeli Tabaquero collecting 23 points with 18 from the attacks, 4 on blocks and a service ace
This win secured the lady tigresses on second seat 10-2 win loss card just behind the DLSU lady spikers.
