MANILA, Philippines - Ateneo-OraCare, displaying fine form, got back at Far Eastern U, 25-16, 26-24, 24-26, 25-14, yesterday to boost its semifinal drive in the second conference of the Shakey’s V-League Season 6 at The Arena in San Juan City.

Fille Cainglet and Angeline Gervacio combined for 35 hits while alumna guest player Charo Soriano backed them up with 10 points as the Lady Eagles parlayed the Lady Tams’ miscues into points en route to posting the victory at the start of the single round quarterfinal phase among six teams.

“We capitalized on our opponent’s errors which we converted into points,” said Ateneo coach Clint Malazo, whose Lady Eagles scored 34 points off the Lady Tams errors. “We also hope to sustain our form.”

The Lady Eagles indeed kept the momentum of their tough five-set win over the Adamson Lady Falcons at the end of the elims last week and poured on the heat in the fourth set, which they dominated behind Gervacio, who finished with 16 hits, and Bea Pascual, who added four points.

Ateneo thus improved to 5-3 and gained a share of third with a skidding San Sebastian side, which bowed to Adamson U, 25-15, 25-13, 25-12, in the second game.

Far Eastern University surprised defending champion Adamson, 25-22, 25-21, 25-17, for their fourth win in five matches that assured them of a playoff for a quarterfinal berth in the Shakey’s V-League at the Blue Eagle gym.

Maica Morada led the Lady Tams' offense with 14 markers while Shaira Gonzales contributed 10 points in posting the win in an hour and 12 minutes that tied them with San Sebastian for second place with a 4-1 slate.

FEU also put up a very tough defense that stopped the Adamson Lady Falcons' hitters, giving the Lady Tams the advantage in the match.

"We were able to control Adamson’s top hitters with our blocking," said FEU coach Nes Pamilar whose wards gave Adamson its second defeat in five matches.

Next up for the Lady Tams are the San Sebastian spikers in what is being considered as another explosive match.
