Adamson nips FEU.

Adamson nips FEU.


Adamson University bucked a third-set meltdown  and leaned on its veterans down the stretch Saturday to outlast a raw but game Far Eastern University (FEU), 25-17, 23-25, 14-25, 25-14, 15-10, in the 73rd UAAP women’s volleyball tournament at the San Juan Arena.

Angela Benting and Pau Soriano stood at the forefront of the Lady Falcons’ comeback, finishing with 19 and 18 points, respectively to offset a 3-10 blocking deficit against the rookie-laden Lady Tamaraws.

Benting and Soriano also combined for 35 of Adamson’s 64 attacks.

Rookie Rosemarie Vargas led FEU with 7 points built on 15 hits while fellow newbies Kathleen Magsumbol and Mayjorie Roxas added 12 and 11, respectively. Veteran Micha Morada banged in 11 points with 9 attacks for the Lady Tamaraws.
