Tubu had 21 points, while team captain Louie Romero' had 18 excellent sets as Adamson notched a repeat victory over UST.
"Siguro 'nung first set po, medyo mabigat kami since galing kami sa training ... three hours 'yun, first time," Romero shared. "Sabi ko sa teammates ko na mamaya na sila magpahinga o bukas na lang kung may pahinga pa kami."
The Tigresses looked on track to avenge their first round loss, taking the first set but quickly yielded control as Tubu and Kate Santiago powered through a UST side that committed 32 errors.
Eya Laure had 17 points for UST, which takes on winless UE on Wednesday.
