Lady Bulldogs secure playoff advantage with 11-game streak

The Lady Bulldogs secured an 11-game winning streak and a playoff for a twice-to-beat advantage in the Final 4 with their victory over the Golden Tigresses on Wednesday at Mall of Asia Arena.

Despite a tough start, NU responded strongly to pull ahead and clinch the win, thanks to key performances by Camille Clarin and Cielo Pagdulagan.

Clarin scored 21 points (18 in the first half), seven rebounds, four assists, one steal, and one block, while Pagdulagan added 17 points with six rebounds, two assists, and a block.

The Lady Bulldogs completed the sweep of UST after their previous victory on September 21, extending their dominance in the elimination round.

UST remains in second place but faces challenges ahead as they prepare for their next game against University of the East on November 9.
