manhandled the STI College Cubao team. Led by Sabrina Umali and
setter Kate del Rosario pounded on the hapless Cubao team. The P. Tuazon based spikers
would run in a maze of errors and had problems receiving the ball that led to a
25 – 16 rout.
Net action between Shiecka Saco and Alliah Lelina
The
third set gave STI College Cubao a new lease of life as the nitty gritty team
finally got their game going and answered every spike that STI College ORCa was
able to give them. Alexandra Vigilia and Shiecka Aira Saco, STI College
Cubao’s 1- 2 punch pounded their opponents to submission to gain the upper hand
and win the set 25 – 20.

fourth set saw the Ortigas-Cainta team forge ahead, add on their lead and have
enough poise to finish the game and remain unbeaten. On the other
STI College Cubao went back to their erratic game, gave up some points and
wasn’t able to keep up with STI College Ortigas-Cainta thus surrendering their
chance to advance. STI College Ortigas-Cainta will now meet STI College Global
