    NATIONAL University made crucial strides in the Final Four race with a three-set romp over Far Eastern University, 25-21, 25-14, 25-23, in the UAAP Season 85 women's volleyball tournament on Sunday at the PhilSports Arena.

    Alyssa Solomon unleashed an 18-piece performance built on 17 attacks and one block for the defending champions, who kept pace with UST, and Adamson at 8-3 (win-loss) heading to the last two weeks of the prelims.

    "Masaya ako sa naging resulta pero at the same time, may mga kailangan pa rin kaming i-improve," said Solomon. "Hindi dapat kaming magsawa matuto, at sa mga natitirang games po ay kailangan lang talaga namin ng dagdag kumpyansa pa."

    NUspikers Bella Belen (14 points) and Vange Alinsug (12 points) pitched in key attacking efforts to complete a quick yet hard-earned sweep.
