ATENEO has been on a tear as of late in UAAP Season 87 women’s volleyball - and that much remained true on Saturday at the Smart Araneta Coliseum, as it frustrated Shaina Nitura and Adamson in straight sets, 25-23, 25-14, and 25-23.
This is now the Blue Eagles’ longest win streak thus far in the elimination round at three in a row after previously getting the better of University of the East and the University of the Philippines.
At the same time, Ateneo got back at the Lady Falcons who scored a reverse sweep against it back in the season-opener, when Nitura dropped a then-rookie record 33 points.
Adamson slid to its fifth loss in the last six games and first defeat of the second round.
