Falcons near semis berth

The Adamson Lady Falcons booted out the University of the Philippines Fighting Maroons and closed in on a UAAP Season 88 women's volleyball Final Four berth with a 25-19, 25-18, 25-16 win at the UST Quadricentennial Pavilion Wednesday, April 15.

Shaina Nitura hammered 26 points including the clincher that put the Lady Falcons on the cusp of a semifinal berth.

Adamson rose to 8-5 to tighten its grip on the third spot, needing to win its last elimination round game against the FEU Lady Tamaraws (7-5) on Saturday to seal its Final Four place.

Nitura added six excellent digs and six receptions for the Lady Falcons, who took the sixth-running Fighting Maroons out of Final Four contention with a 5-8 record.

UP still has one game left against the UST Golden Tigresses (7-5) on Sunday.

Adamson, FEU, and UST are the last three teams disputing the final two semis berths after the 12-0 La Salle and 9-3 National University already secured theirs.

03:05And to Faye, to be with you ever since high school up to now,
03:10what do you think about how you grew your connection,
03:14both on and off, and how important it is in your success,
03:17that you can see in the UAE?
03:22I'm grateful, because since high school has been with us,
03:27so we didn't have to perfect all the relationships.
03:29So we had to have a misunderstanding,
03:32but we had to make sure that we're going to be able to do it with Adamson
03:36and to support us.
03:43I'm sorry for that.
03:44I'm sorry for that.
03:44I'm sorry for that.
03:47Yes, you have the destiny.
03:50You have the destiny.

03:54and you can determine your message.
03:57Like, what does that mean to you,
03:59you're the destiny of it?
04:02I have the destiny of it?
04:02Maybe God's will.
04:04I don't know,
04:05but I'm sure when I'm happy that,
04:07I think,
04:09who is more willing to respond,
04:10especially if it's not right,
04:13and applicable in our situation.
04:15So I think,
04:16When we're doing it, we're going to be able to respond to the team.
04:21We've set aside the individual and the selfish desires that we want.
04:28So we've really focused on helping the team to get in to fight and war.
04:32And same goes with the coaching team.
