The Lady Baby Falcons are out to add the SGVIL crown to their collection following their flawless conquest of UAAP Season 86.
Adamson hurdled its first five outings including a dominating 25-19, 25-17, 25-17, straight sets win over the Lady Bullpups in the semifinal last Thursday.
Adamson coach JP Yude pins his hopes on UAAP Season 86 MVP Shaina Nitura, who blasted 17 points in the semis, to carry Adamson to the top podium in her last hurrah before moving up to the seniors’ division.
Backing Nitura up are reliable wingers Samantha Cantada and Abegail Segui, battle-tested middles Mary Ann Del Moral and Lhouriz Tuddao, and top setter Felicity Sagaysay.
The Thunderbolts are also unscathed in five starts entering the finale of the country’s premier grassroots volleyball tournament backed by Shakey’s Pizza Parlor, Eurotel, Victory Liner, Smart Sports, Mikasa, Team Rebel Sports, Data Project, Genius Sports and Robinsons Malls.
The Ilonggas defeated King Montessori, 25-18, 25-14, 25-23, in the Final Four behind the troika of Rhose Almendralejo, Jothea Ramos and Ana Hemosura.
