La Salle's late-season revelation Shevana Laput resets her UAAP career-high with 16 points against hapless Ateneo, which lost its 12th rivalry game dating back to 2017. UAAPSeason85
MANILA, Philippines – For the 12th straight time dating back to 2017, the La Salle Lady Spikers lorded over their historic rival Ateneo Blue Eagles in a 25-22, 25-19, 25-18 sweep in the UAAP Season 85 women’s volleyball tournament at the Mall of Asia Arena on Sunday, April 23.
Weathering slow starts in the first and second sets, the Lady Spikers did just enough in the third to keep their heads above water, while the Eagles got as near as 16-18. “We had kind of a slow start, so we just reminded the kids to play with pride,” said La Salle assistant coach Noel Orcullo in Filipino. “We cannot relax because Ateneo was fighting back. Don’t wait for them to make mistakes for us.”
