The University of Santo Tomas (UST) Golden Tigresses have won the 2024 V-League Women's Collegiate Challenge, ending a 14-year championship drought.

They defeated the Far Eastern University (FEU) Lady Tamaraws in a decisive Game 3 with set scores of 24-26, 25-20, 25-21, 25-14.

This victory avenges UST's loss in Game 2, where FEU forced a Game 3 after a controversial net fault call on Cassie Carballo's potential championship-clinching hit led to UST prematurely celebrating.

Tournament MVP Angge Poyos, who missed Game 2 due to illness, led the Tigresses with 31 points in the deciding match.

Regina Jurado also contributed significantly with 15 points, sealing the championship with decisive plays.
