00:00Good to have you with us, NCAA season 100 on Heart of Asia, GMA Sports BH, and NCAA Philippines.
00:08And we kick it off with this rally, it is Joy Perez flying in and getting a kill right away.
00:15So that's what you want to see from the rookie Joy Perez.
00:19Starting it off strong, Perez with that down the line hit against LPU.
00:24And I say that's a good sign for them because she has the tendency to have slow starts in a
00:31match, Gaira.
00:32So it's a good thing that she can get right away.
00:35And it's a great thing for EAC right now because we can see their peak at the right time.
00:42Defense has an on point, although LPU gets that point.
00:46So two rookies scoring the first two points of the match.
00:51This time, Sheila Pascual was able to bounce that off the net.
00:58And Sheila Pascual late emergence for LPU this year.
01:03I think it was against Mapua where she really was able to get the opportunity to perform and showcase her
01:11wares.
01:13Osada with that service ace with a great target just in between the seams of the open hitter as well
01:20as the libero of EAC.
01:22Here, Romi Osada.
01:26Firing up an ace and it's another good serve.
01:29Great save by Razonable.
01:31Back-to-back aces!
01:34That sacrifice of Alex Razonable to save that ball.
01:38But EAC could not get her a second ball here or a third ball.
01:44And mind you, that was a perfect second ball to be put over.
01:49Yeah.
01:50Back-to-back aces for Hiro Osada.
01:55And this is probably the reason why she is sticking around in the starting lineup.
02:00Aside from her activity at the net.
02:03Oh, this is an overpass.
02:04Put down by Razonable.
02:06Alex Razonable.
02:09Two to three.
02:11And again, that EAC net defense.
02:15Very formidable.
02:17We're seeing our friend Aura today from EAC, if I can say.
02:22Oh, nice.
02:24Oh, serious.
02:25Yes.
02:26Ken, they're locked in.
02:29It's a play-in match natin.
02:33And it's hard, Gaira, as we see the swing.
02:37And a rally starting to brew as Alberto puts an end away.
02:42Alberto was actually one of the players that we were talking about off-air.
02:48A very potential player who can just get up the ranks for LPU as well.
02:54For EAC, Gaira, it's twice as tough because you're trying to achieve something you haven't experienced all season long,
03:02which is to win.
03:03And you're trying to get it at such a critical juncture of the season.
03:08And that's a big challenge for them right now.
03:11And LPU just showing their experience here in the first set.
03:16LPU just doing what they do best with the consistency inside the court.
03:22And what EAC is going up against right now is experience and maturity that LPU already has.
03:29And we were talking about how EAC is a very new squad with a new coach as well.
03:34So they're still adjusting to the system.
03:36This is first-year head coach Kirk Ong, long-time coach of Chiang Kai-shek High School.
03:44It's another good exchange we're witnessing.
03:47Pascual is denied.
03:51So that's where EAC will generate most of their points through the net defense.
03:56Actually, I had a chance to talk to coach Kirk in the first round of the NCAA.
04:01And he said that his focus was actually the all-around defense of the team.
04:08So it's not only floor defense but also the net defense, which has been very effective for his team.
04:14Yeah, they're number one in blocking in the league. Imagine, you know, at 0-13, you're still topping the blocking
04:20department.
04:21Means your blocking is incredible, right? Game-changing.
04:26And rallies have been good for EAC as well.
04:29That's right. Here's the adjustment by Razonable.
04:33Razonable is really different. She came in with a new mindset in this match.
04:41You can see it from her actions, from how she's carrying herself and her team.
04:46She is one of the few veterans on this squad.
04:50So she has to lead by example.
04:53Galedo over to Pascual, who goes down the line again.
04:58Sheila Pascual is catching fire.
05:05And I like this player because she's a two-way player. She's very good as a floor defender.
05:12But high flyer too, right? She's not the tallest spiker.
05:16But when she elevates, she really goes above the net.
05:21She makes up for it.
05:23Back set here. It's a T-ball for Dayanan.
05:26That's a gift. Overpass.
05:28And Ramos putting it down.
05:31Ramos!
05:35LPU's had a few overpasses here in the first set.
05:38And EAC has been taking advantage.
05:41You can really feel the tension right now for EAC and LPU.
05:44Because whoever wins this match is going straight to the quarterfinals.
05:49You can feel the implications.
05:52Our battle is strong.
05:54You know what's at stake?
05:56Pretty much the season for both teams.
05:58As reasonable.
05:59Fires up an EAC with the help of the net.
06:04And that's what's great about the play-in.
06:06You have the right, the perfect time to peak.
06:09So no matter how many wins you had in those two rounds,
06:13if you win in the play-in match, you will go up in the quarterfinals.
06:18Exactly.
06:20So just imagine if EAC does it at 0.13.
06:25That would be unheard of.
06:27It's going to be a first year at the NCAA.
06:30For sure.
06:31So now they follow up the ace with an error.
06:34So LPU, of course, they won't be able to win there.
06:37You know, they have the tools to get it done.
06:41They've challenged the good teams.
06:44And knowing Coach Cromwell, he really has a deep bench.
06:47And he can utilize all these players as well.
06:50Oh, a service ace from the rookie, Daniel Alberto.
06:55And LPU is first to 8 points.
06:57And we go to our first technical timeout.
07:00When we return, we have a report from R&D.
07:03And we're going to look at the last year of the LSU.
07:08Let's go to the next episode.
07:08And we're going to do the next episode.
07:10And we're going to have 2, which is a very good team.
07:10For the last year, we'll be able to share with you in the last year.
07:42We welcome you back to the continuing coverage of the NCAA Season 101 Women's Volleyball Tournament.
07:52Big game for us today, Martin and Gaira, and even bigger aspirations for Coach Cromwell Garcia and the LPU Lady
07:58Pirates.
07:58Despite entering this game with only a 4-9 record, and being the 4th place team in their group, Coach
08:04Cromwell tells me that him and his team are very optimistic heading into today's play-in game.
08:09And that's because they see the bigger picture.
08:11Sinabi nga sa akin ni Coach Cromwell, and that's because according to Coach Cromwell that they want to finish the
08:16season the right way.
08:17And that right way is a podium finish.
08:20Dinagtag rin naman ni Coach Crom na kailangan lang nila pagandahin yung story.
08:23And baka ito na yung waiting god to make us start our Cinderella run.
08:27Entering our second play-in game, both of our teams are healthy and ready to go at it.
08:31Martin and Gaira.
08:32Thank you so much, Aaron.
08:34Wow, that's a great message coming from Coach Crom.
08:40Siyempre para sa kumpiansa na rin ng kanyang team at Dolorito gets her first point.
08:47Pinapaganda na yung istorya dito sa Season 101.
08:52Because we know this team, Morrow Run for LPU.
08:55We know this team, you know, and what they're capable of doing.
08:59And initial part of the season, I was able to talk to Coach Cromwell.
09:03Ang sinabi niya sa akin,
09:05And this classification round, it's just gonna be all about their progress and their growth as a team.
09:11Because there are a lot of key additions or a lot of additions to this team that wala siyempre nung
09:16previous season.
09:17So, they use the classification round to kind of address, experiment, address the things that they need to improve on
09:27and maybe get the right mix on the court.
09:30And that's what's exciting for LPU as well as Coach Cromwell.
09:34We've been mentioning their second stringers.
09:37Their second stringers can actually be the first six as well.
09:42So, that's a good problem for Coach Cromwell, who to put in.
09:46Yeah, that's true.
09:47Because as Dolorito scores another one here, this is now...
09:54Five straight points for LPU.
09:57So, massive run here by the Lady Pirates.
10:00Pulling away really quickly.
10:02Yeah.
10:04Imagine, initial part of the season, as Mochilas commits the error, pretty much ending their own run.
10:12Ang-starting spiker, Coach Cromwell, is facing...
10:16De Guzman.
10:17Once again, Roxy, then, of course.
10:21But, Mascual was a late, again, emergent.
10:23So, that was part of the whole experimentation and growing as a team as we move along with the season.
10:31And that's when, you know, you can put anyone in for LPU.
10:36But for De Guzman, she's been a really great player as well off the bench.
10:40That's true.
10:41Hot hands again.
10:42Oh, speaking of.
10:44This is Karo Dayanen.
10:46Karo Dayanen, the AC's leading scorer this season, has come up with this point.
10:53He's the most consistent spiker.
10:58Karo Dayanen also has emerged as one of the best opposites in the league.
11:04That's a good serve by Lute.
11:06Kaledo to the running Osada.
11:08They've been going to that play a few times already.
11:11And with LPU, it's great that they've been utilizing not only their open hitters, but as well as their middle
11:17blockers.
11:18But not just at the middle, they're going for those long pins as well.
11:23That's true.
11:25Slide that, but long ball.
11:28Osada's target.
11:33Good reception.
11:35Perez through the antenna.
11:39Attack on top.
11:4013-9 in favor of LPU.
11:42The AC should be more mindful of their errors right now.
11:46They have the chance to keep in step with LPU.
11:51EAC calls for a time here.
11:53Coach Kirk wants to talk things over.
11:56It's not easy for the open-album antennas.
11:59It's better to make sure it's better.
12:02It's okay.
12:03It's okay.
12:03It's okay to adjust.
12:04They're all the follow.
12:05They're all the slides.
12:06You can do it.
12:06That's why you're standing there.
12:08I'm not able to do it.
12:10You can do it.
12:11You can do it.
12:12You can do it.
12:14Happy!
12:17Great time out from Coach Kirk.
12:19Kirk, he actually addressed his team's problem first,
12:22which is the set.
12:22That it should not be too wide in the antenna
12:25to make the spikers.
12:27On the second note,
12:28he now said that LPU has been doing those running attacks
12:33or those long slides.
12:34So he's been targeting the blockers as well of EAC
12:38that it should be able to know what to block on that left side.
12:43because Perez, she likes the sets.
12:47Short.
12:48Short.
12:48Short.
12:48Short.
12:49Tight in the net.
12:50So sometimes, the interpretation of that is,
12:52okay,
12:53if it's not one,
12:55it's far away from the other side.
12:58It's the antenna.
12:58Yes, it's a hard time.
13:00And she's going to have a hard time for those angles.
13:02Yeah.
13:03But, like you said,
13:04she likes those short balls
13:05because she's doing some progress
13:06from all angles and variations.
13:08Joy Perez.
13:09That's true.
13:09So, 10 to 13.
13:12EAC responding well after the timeout.
13:16Caledo over to Pascual.
13:19Down the line,
13:20but it went out.
13:22Pascual,
13:23Pascual medyo nagkigigil
13:25with that hit,
13:26but that definitely was a perfect set
13:30from Caledo.
13:32Caledo,
13:33again,
13:33also,
13:35very big shoes to fill
13:37going into this competition.
13:40She replaced
13:41our former best center,
13:45Mingming Puzon.
13:47That's the only thing
13:47that she added as the primary
13:50as Razunafi commits the service
13:52or the attack error, rather.
13:55And that's been the problem of EAC.
13:56The reason why
13:57they're not generating enough offense
14:00when it comes to attack points.
14:01They've been getting the good sets
14:02and the good setups here,
14:04but
14:04they have a tendency of committing
14:06and piling up on those errors.
14:09Well,
14:09it's coming from their digs,
14:11actually.
14:11When it comes from
14:13the strong hits of LPU,
14:15they've been struggling,
14:15but Toriado,
14:17giving a hard time to LPU
14:18as well with that hit.
14:21This is what I wish
14:23for the first challenge of the day.
14:32Net-touch challenge.
14:34Care of the LPU Lady Pirates.
14:40Every challenge as well,
14:41it's the coach's chance
14:43to talk to his players.
14:44Yeah, it's like
14:46an alternative to
14:48a timeout.
14:49Ito yung LPU team natin.
14:51You see Jaja Tulang there.
14:53Number six,
14:54back
14:54in LPU's bench
14:57after
14:59only playing
15:00two matches.
15:01So,
15:02last 11 matches,
15:03hindi siya nakapaglaro.
15:06Malaking tulong yan.
15:07If she is 100%,
15:08she could be a game changer
15:11here for LPU.
15:12Well,
15:13again,
15:13she's just adjusting
15:15right now
15:16from coming back,
15:17but we all know
15:18how Jaja Tulang is
15:19on the court.
15:20I like how
15:21our music is
15:22also on board
15:23with
15:24the whole atmosphere
15:25here in the play-in.
15:26It's not as
15:28party,
15:29you know,
15:29festive.
15:31It's just cool
15:32and easy.
15:34Just enough to
15:35maybe break
15:36the tension.
15:38That's what we like
15:39about the second stringers.
15:41They're just
15:41making sure
15:42that the team
15:43is lively
15:43every time.
15:44Buhay lang.
15:46Also,
15:48a chance for them
15:49to,
15:49you know,
15:50get loose.
15:51Warm up still.
15:52Warm up,
15:52yeah,
15:53get warm.
15:55It's hard to
15:55to get in.
15:58I like Pascual,
15:59right?
16:03In the middle
16:04of the game.
16:05Lala,
16:06bala,
16:06bala,
16:06bala ng
16:06EAC.
16:09Grabe.
16:10Oh,
16:11di ba?
16:12May sarili-sarili
16:12pala tayong
16:13representative
16:13dito
16:14from both teams.
16:15This is a lengthy
16:16review,
16:17by the way,
16:17of that
16:19NetTouch.
16:22LPU is trying to stay warm here.
16:26Is it inconclusive?
16:28There's a video challenge.
16:29I'll show you.
16:32So this was the put down by Toriado.
16:35Did you jump in?
16:37Oh!
16:40No.
16:41There was no touch.
16:43That's great control by Toriado.
16:48That was a hairline.
16:52Just a little bit.
16:54But what will we expect from the current number one best to go blocker in the league?
17:02LPU benched that bench into letting them think that she touched the net.
17:07So the score is 14 to 12.
17:10VAC starting to come alive.
17:15Galedo.
17:15One-two play.
17:17The deception play by Galedo.
17:19But you have to be mindful as well of your EAC.
17:22You cannot serve on Blue de Guzmán.
17:25Because when you serve to a libero, it's going to be a perfect pass.
17:30And once she saw that hole in the middle, took a quick scan and then guided the ball that way.
17:39Here's the set up to the middle.
17:41Nicely done on the save.
17:43Pascual.
17:44Out of system.
17:47Ooh.
17:48Not the ideal set for Dayanan.
17:51Here's Pascual.
17:54Galedo.
17:55Pack set this time.
17:56Choosing Mochillas.
17:57Not that time.
17:59Here is Ramos.
18:01Long rally for the two teams.
18:03Mochillas again.
18:04Popped up by De Andres.
18:06Cara Dayanan has been getting the out of system balls.
18:10Here's Dolorito with the ad-lib.
18:14They go to Razonable this time.
18:16And Alex scores.
18:18Razonable with a good eye.
18:20Seeing that Pascual was already inside for that defense.
18:25So that zone five was very open for her.
18:32Pascual Daliber was inside enough to take that one.
18:39Thirteen to fifteen.
18:41Thirteen to fifteen.
18:43Galedo.
18:46Pascual Daliber is going to go up.
18:48Razonable with the off-speed again.
18:51Razonable with a variation to her hit now.
18:56Just on the side of the blockers as well.
19:00That's difficult.
19:02You know, she was moving sideways.
19:04And then went for the off-speed drop.
19:09Fourteen to fifteen.
19:11Lead is down to one.
19:12Ooh!
19:13And a service ace.
19:15To tie things up here in the opening frame.
19:19Cara Dayanan.
19:20The ace is definitely locked in.
19:23In this match.
19:25We're going to hear more from Aaron later about this.
19:28But again,
19:29Coach Kirk said that they have no other option but to win.
19:34Aaron said to me not.
19:37Okay, okay, okay.
19:38Fifteen all.
19:39Three straight points.
19:40By EAC.
19:43Ending with that.
19:45That's what she has hit.
19:47It is sixteen to fifteen.
19:49LPU is back in the front.
19:51We'll be back after this.
19:52Sixteen to fifteen.
19:54In favor of the LPU Lady Pirates.
20:26Welcome back to the coverage.
20:28Mancom representative of Emilio Aguinaldo College,
20:32Dr. Lorenzo Lorenzo.
20:37And from LPU this time, Dr. Alan Ball,
20:41Laiko PhD.
20:44In attendance.
20:45Yesterday we had a cheerleading competition.
20:48Today we go back into the thick of things.
20:53With a play-in.
20:56It's a Sunday, right?
20:57Let's go back there.
20:58Part of the Lady Pirates.
21:00Second play-in today.
21:04LPU ahead by one.
21:06But before this,
21:07it was EAC who had three straight points.
21:13That was going out.
21:14Yeah.
21:14But Pascual still got it.
21:16Ah, Jona Dolorito off the block.
21:22So that's how you make up for the initial mistake.
21:27With the line-up as well of LPU right now,
21:31with the people on the court,
21:32Jona Dolorito is the only veteran
21:34who has been the most present
21:38always in the first six.
21:40So,
21:40Coach Crommel Dolorito is always on the court.
21:45He's the constant on the court for LPU.
21:48The other pieces of Coach Crommel.
21:51Yes.
21:51Dekilia is now in the match for EAC
21:54for a different flavor in playmaking
21:57as Mochilias puts it away.
21:59What a perfect approach and form
22:02by Mochilias going above the blockers.
22:06And LPU with
22:09a minor run of their own.
22:13This is now three straight as well
22:15from the Lady Pirates.
22:18Pascual.
22:20Perfect pass.
22:22Dekilia to the middle.
22:23Good reflexes by Alberto.
22:25Here comes Dolorito.
22:26D'Andres.
22:29Difficult setup.
22:31Coming from Dekilia.
22:33Back row attack.
22:35Derecho kay Perez.
22:37Razonable.
22:38Cross court again.
22:39That's a tight angle.
22:41Taken by Alex.
22:43Razonable.
22:44Definitely with a different aura
22:46coming into this match.
22:48She's very much serious
22:50in wanting to get this win.
22:53She has targeted that zone 5 a lot.
22:58Gaira.
22:58Either 5 or 6.
23:00And she's been getting clean hits
23:02especially if the sets are perfect.
23:04She's really losing the LPU blockers.
23:07And here she is serving now.
23:09Ooh!
23:10That one was taken by Guzman.
23:13Mochilias puts it through.
23:16So, for the second time now,
23:19in this stretch.
23:20Kinuha ng accidentally.
23:23Nadig ng LPU.
23:25Pero yung mga spikers.
23:26And ay pupuntos.
23:28Number 17.
23:30Ayi Alberto.
23:31Number 4.
23:33Faith De Guzman comes in for the first time.
23:38She replaces Ayi Alberto.
23:41Faith De Guzman.
23:42De Guzman will act as a service specialist.
23:45And this is great as well for LPU
23:48because if you're a middle blocker
23:50sometimes you struggle.
23:51Being tall,
23:51you struggle with defense.
23:53And knowing Faith,
23:54talagang magaling siya
23:55with her floor defense.
23:56On point.
23:57Yeah. On cue.
23:58Oh!
23:59Mochilias!
24:01Back to back points!
24:03Look at this.
24:05Ashley Mochilias.
24:06The elevation.
24:07Number 10.
24:10And the pot down here.
24:12Number 13.
24:13LPU on a 5-1 run.
24:18Score is 20.
24:19Serving 16.
24:21The Guzman continues to serve
24:24Derecho Yankee.
24:25Razonable.
24:26Great coverage.
24:28No!
24:30EAC with a miscommunication.
24:32Actually, EAC has been struggling with that
24:35in this whole game.
24:37They're getting those first balls
24:39but the follow-ups
24:40walang kumukuha.
24:43That's something they need to address.
24:46Let's hear it from Coach Kirk.
24:50Sino setter?
24:51Oh!
24:52Anong gagawin mo?
24:53Wala tayong points.
24:54Pagunong-unong kayo doon.
24:55Wala tayong mapupapala doon.
24:56Kailangan natin mayingat yung bola.
24:59Abunin!
25:00Abunin!
25:01Abunin!
25:02Abunin!
25:02Abunin!
25:03Abunin!
25:03Abunin!
25:04Abunin!
25:04Abunin!
25:04Abunin!
25:06Abunin!
25:08Abunin!
25:08Great timeout from Coach Kirk.
25:10Tinanong niya,
25:11Sino yung setter?
25:12And of course,
25:13you have to take ownership
25:15of your position inside the court.
25:18But no matter where the ball is,
25:21kailangan talaga may sumusunods.
25:23And to have that,
25:24to anticipate every movement.
25:27We'll see if she can respond here.
25:29But, you know,
25:30she hasn't been getting the ideal first passes as well.
25:33And this is good for Perez.
25:35Troy Perez!
25:38So they were able to get the point.
25:40Oh no!
25:41But Coach Krom is gonna
25:44challenge that.
25:46From that angle,
25:49it...
25:50was on the line.
25:53Tagaledo,
25:55tsaka...
25:55first referee,
25:56Eli De Jesus,
25:57talking.
25:58Walang challenge,
25:58walang challenge,
25:59walang challenge.
26:00Walang challenge,
26:02yung ball touch,
26:03yung ball touch sa baba yun,
26:04hindi black touch.
26:05Okay, so the referee is saying
26:07that there's no challenge for that,
26:09for the ball touch,
26:10if it was touched,
26:11um,
26:12by the defense.
26:13Uh-huh.
26:13The floor defense.
26:15But we have a challenge for block touch,
26:18when it's on the net.
26:19Uh-huh.
26:20Okay.
26:21So, 17-21.
26:24Riyan Datu,
26:25now serving for AC.
26:31You see new faces here,
26:33on the side of the Lady Generals.
26:37Datu,
26:37serving Mochillas,
26:40changing her approach.
26:41Now that's a free ball for LPU.
26:44Here's Caledo.
26:45Combination for Dolorito,
26:47is shut down.
26:49What a play by LPU.
26:50You had Osada going for a be quick.
26:53Dolorito,
26:54on the left side of Osada,
26:55but you have Torriado,
26:58anticipating that one already.
27:00Scoreless.
27:01Again,
27:01serving 21.
27:02They are the best,
27:03when it comes to floor,
27:04uh, net defense.
27:06in season 101.
27:09Caledo.
27:11Underhand pass here for Jonah.
27:13Too hot to handle.
27:16Jonah!
27:16They've been putting the balls off.
27:18EAC is getting close off,
27:21even though it's not perfect.
27:22But,
27:23that's what we were talking about.
27:25No one is going for the second ball.
27:29Again,
27:30the initial,
27:31uh,
27:32dig there.
27:33They react well.
27:35But,
27:36they've been having difficulty,
27:38tracking down the second ball.
27:40This time,
27:41they score though.
27:41It's Sayago.
27:45Scoring right here,
27:46Sayago again.
27:48Substitution for 18.
27:49Came off the bench,
27:50alongside Tato earlier.
27:52And,
27:53ah,
27:53he's gonna be replaced now.
27:55Number six.
27:56So,
27:56Lute is back in the match,
27:58alongside Dayanan.
28:00And,
28:00Chaja Tulang.
28:01Number 11.
28:04Anters the game for the first time.
28:07Number 13.
28:07Ash Mochilas out.
28:08Number 13.
28:09Bam Taghoy in.
28:10uh,
28:10missing,
28:12the last 11 matches.
28:14Taghoy,
28:16also in for LPU.
28:17So,
28:18she'll be the setter.
28:21That's Bam Taghoy.
28:22George Lute.
28:23No serving for EAC.
28:26To start.
28:28Sharp serve.
28:30Taghoy to Dolorito.
28:32here.
28:32Denied.
28:35Great defense.
28:36That defense
28:37by EAC.
28:39Again,
28:39they are the number one
28:41walking team
28:42in the NCAA.
28:43Torriado actually
28:44was deceived
28:44in that sequence.
28:46he's still running.
28:48And,
28:49she pointed
28:50to the ball
28:51afterwards.
28:53Coach Krom
28:53goes for time.
28:54Take advantage.
28:56I understand.
28:57There we go.
28:58End game.
28:58We need to finish.
29:00Two girls,
29:00three.
29:00two.
29:01I'll get it.
29:02I need to pass one.
29:04Then who's the matchup?
29:05You know it.
29:07Let's go.
29:08Let's go.
29:08One, two, three.
29:09One, two, three.
29:31I would say a cue.
29:34They said they were viewing
29:37before the game.
29:38They were really teaching
29:39their opponents.
29:40They have to know the
29:41tendencies of the other side
29:42as well.
29:45as well.
29:45Here's the guy.
29:46Diana is here.
29:49Underhand pass again
29:50for Jonah.
29:53Here comes EAC.
29:54Perez...
29:55Oh, she breaks
29:56through the barrier.
29:58And Joy Perez
29:59cuts the lead.
30:01Down to one.
30:03You have to love what EAC is doing right now, playing with a lot of variation against LPU.
30:10We have an exciting opening set here in our second play-in.
30:19That was a fast substitution on the side of LPU.
30:24EAC with an identical 5-1 run.
30:29Oh, a service ace to tie it up for George Lute.
30:35Razonable celebrating Lute's service ace as well.
30:41Wow. Came down at the perfect time.
30:45We're tied at 22 all.
30:50Lute playing solid so far.
30:55Another sharp one unleashed.
30:59Dolorito beating the blockers to give them back the lead.
31:07Well, the veteran of the Lady Pirates, the queen of the Pirates, she has to step up in this match.
31:14The player has to play the game of her life today for them to stay alive in the competition.
31:26Toriyado.
31:32And you can see that EAC already knows kung saan ilalagay yong ola.
31:38Definitely studied the defense pattern that LPU has or is currently showing at the moment.
31:44I like the chess match, you know, we are witnessing so far because both teams are well-coached and well
31:53-studied.
31:55Oh, running hit.
31:56Dug up.
31:59Dayanan.
32:00Here's the save.
32:02Pascual out of system.
32:04De Andres was there.
32:05Here comes Razonable.
32:08Guzman.
32:10Galedo to the back row they go.
32:14Backset for Dayanan.
32:15Two-handed push.
32:17Easy up.
32:19Pascual.
32:20Toriyado with a good touch.
32:22One-two play.
32:23Ah, ready.
32:24See the Andres.
32:25And Toriyado tried to put it down but it's still going.
32:30Perez keeps it alive.
32:31Here is Dayanan.
32:32Off the block.
32:36Dayanan with so much power going through the blockers.
32:42And EAC takes over the lead.
32:46And the Lady Generals are now at set point.
32:52LPU quickly calling for ceasefire.
32:56Okay.
32:58Endgame na tayo.
32:59Kailangan natin makapula ako.
33:00Oh, hindi na tayo sa sitwisyon na to.
33:03Ano na daagawin natin?
33:04Pasahan muna na kaysa.
33:06Okay?
33:06Spyker, decision making.
33:08Anong daagawin nyo?
33:09Kailangan natin makapula ako.
33:12Kailangan natin makapula ako.
33:12Kailangan natin makapula ako.
33:14Every decision counts right now for LPU.
33:18They are at their endgame and this is coming as a surprise.
33:21They are being pushed and stretched by the EAC Lady Generals.
33:27That's right.
33:28LPU ahead by as many as five points earlier.
33:32It was 21 to 16.
33:33Now it's 24 to 23.
33:36EAC.
33:39Perez to start.
33:44Underhand pass for Pascual.
33:47Easy up for Perez.
33:50Razonable.
33:51Just like how she's been doing it here in the opening set.
33:56LPU has yet to read.
33:59Razonable spikes time and time again.
34:01She has been going to that spot.
34:04And EAC with the comeback finish in the opening set to take a one-set-to-none lead.
34:15RASC-12V.
34:16Follow the bell.
34:16RASC-13V.
34:24RASC-13V.
34:26The main-set-to-none lead takes place.
34:28RASC-13V.
34:30RASC-15V.
34:30RASC-13V.
