UAAP: FEU fends off DLSU to start UAAP women’s hoops
The FEU Lady Tamaraws kicked off their UAAP Season 86 campaign with a wire-to-wire 75-68 victory over the DLSU Lady Archers at the Mall of Asia Arena.
Josee Kaputu led the charge for FEU with 27 points and nine rebounds, complemented by 13 points from Queenie Aquino and 10 from Jamerin Delos Santos.
The Lady Tamaraws at one point held a 15-point lead early in the fourth quarter, but DLSU mounted a comeback.
Julie Manguiat's triple extended FEU's lead to 10 in the fourth, and Kaputu's late-game conversion ultimately secured the win.
Ann Mendoza was the standout for DLSU, tallying 23 points, 10 rebounds, two blocks, and two steals, while Angel Villavade and Luisa Dela Paz added 10 and nine points, respectively.
FEU's head coach Bert Flores expressed hope that this win against last year's runner-up will boost the team's confidence.
