Lady Chiefs in quick disposal of EAC foes
MANILA, Philippines — Arellano University barely broke a sweat in a 25-17, 25-16, 25-12 disposal of cold-hitting Emilio Aguinaldo College in the 2024 Shakey’s Super League Collegiate Pre-season Championship yesterday at the Rizal Memorial Coliseum.
The Lady Chiefs needed only one hour and 26 minutes to dispatch the Lady Generals and join the Ateneo de Manila University Eagles in Pool A’s debut winners list.
Arellano rained down 43 attacks and took advantage of EAC’s 25 miscues for a quick workout in the tournament backed by Shakey’s Pizza Parlor, GCash, Chery Tiggo, F2 Logistics, Peri-Peri Charcoal Chicken, Potato Corner, R and B Milk Tea and Summit Water.
Laika Tudlasan led the Lady Chiefs’ balanced offense with 10 points while Kacelyn Punzalan and Mauie Magaling added eight and six markers, respectively.
“Grateful po kami kasi preparations po namin sabi ng mga coaches na ngayon na yung test na maia-apply yung pinaghirapan namin for months,” said Tudlasan, who had nine kills.
The Lady Chiefs pulled away early in the third set, racing to a 15-4 advantage that eventually ballooned to 24-11 after a Pauline de Guzman off-the-block hit.
“Maganda po ‘yung communication and saya namin sa team. Parang ang gaan ngayon kasi may tiwala kami sa isa’t isa,” Tudlasan added.
EAC kept the game close only in the early goings of the first two sets.
