Vange Alinsug, new face of NU for coming years, shows her worth
Vange Alinsug stepped up for the NU Lady Bulldogs in Game 1 of the UAAP Season 87 finals against rival La Salle, scoring 21 points, including the match-clinching point in a 25-17, 25-21, 13-25, 25-17 victory.
Her performance compensated for the silent contribution of nine points from top gun Alyssa Solomon.
As a third-year player, Alinsug's offensive explosion puts the Lady Bulldogs one win away from their first-ever back-to-back championship.
Alinsug stated that there was no special instruction, but she seized the opportunity and credited the team effort for the win.
She also mentioned that coach Sherwin Meneses instructed her to outplay the opponents.
This breakout game gives NU fans a glimpse into the program's bright future, especially with team stalwarts like Bella Belen set to exit the UAAP this season.
