DESIGNATED DRIVER - The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines – Defending champion National University trampled Far Eastern University-Diliman, 25-20, 25-16, 25-17, to stretch its perfect run to eight games in the UAAP Season 79 high school volleyball tournament at the Adamson University gym last weekend.

But the Bullpups’ boys were not as fortunate as the titleholders dropped a 25-18, 20-25, 16-25, 19-25, 15-17 defeat to the Baby Tamaraws after sweeping their first eight games.

NU’s setback enabled UST to grab the solo lead in the boys’ division after beating University of the East, 25-20, 23-25, 25-19, 25-19, for its ninth win in 10 contests.?     

The Tigresses, meanwhile, kept within distance of the NU side to stay in second place in the girls category with a 7-1 slate, as UST made quick work of Adamson University, 25-17, 25-22, 25-14.

In the other girls’ match, UE downed UP Integrated School, 25-17, 25-19, 25-15, to keep its Final Four chances alive.

In other boys’ results, De La Salle-Zobel turned back Adamson University, 25-14, 25-15, 25-16, while Ateneo prevailed over UPIS 25-21, 25-15, 25-17.?
