For the last game of the elimination round, the De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde won 3 straight sets against Lyceum of the Philippines University last May 30 to formally clinch the #1 spot in the Final Four.
Scorching Lady Blazers
The CSB Lady Blazers made sure that in their last elimination match of Round 2, they would get that twice-to-beat advantage they are seeking.
Meanwhile, this is a non-bearing game for the LPU Lady Pirates since they have already been eliminated as they were the 5th seed behind the University of Perpetual Help DALTA.
Indeed, the match was quick and painful. The Lady Blazers won in 3 straight sets.
Final Score: 25-20, 25-18, 25-12
Zam Nolasco led the ladies in green and white with 12 points from her 9 attacks, and 3 blocks. Other Lady Blazers also stepped up for the win, such as Clydel Catarig with 9 points and Aya Densing with 8 points.
On the other hand, Johna Dolorito was the lone Lady Pirate who shone in the match with 10 points.
The LPU Lady Pirates have ended their Season 100 with a win-loss record of 8-10.
Meanwhile, CSB will finish their elimination stage with 16 wins and only 2 losses.
4 Peat on the Way?
The CSB Lady Blazers wish to make history in the 100th Season of the NCAA as they seek their 4th championship in a row.
Final Four begins this Sunday, June 1, with the 3-time defending champs battling the Mapua Lady Cardinals. It continues on Tuesday, June 3, with the #2 seed Letran Lady Knights squaring off against the #4 seed Arellano Lady Chiefs.
