Still haunted by UST loss, La Salle flexes height and shuts out UE
Defending champion La Salle secured their fourth win in five games in the UAAP Season 86 women's volleyball tournament by defeating University of the East (UE).
The team's only loss so far this season was a heartbreaking setback against the University of Santo Tomas (UST) after blowing a two-set lead.
La Salle's Angel Canino stated that the loss to UST served as a "hugot" and a wake-up call for the team to focus and lessen errors.
Thea Gagate also acknowledged the UST loss as a wake-up call, emphasizing the need for better focus and fewer errors.
La Salle, led by Canino with 17 points, effectively contained UE's Casiey Dongallo, limiting her to 15 points.
The Lady Spikers also held a significant advantage in blocks, contributing to their dominant 25-21, 25-18, 25-10 victory over UE.
UE's head coach Jerry Yee remains suspended, with the team playing under interim coach Obet Vital.
