FEU spikers hold off Lady Warriors
April 30, 2006 | 12:00am
Mary Ann Manalo took over in the last two sets as Far Eastern University repulsed University of the East, 25-22, 22-25, 25-11, 25-18, yesterday to pick up its first win in two games in the second conference of the V-League presented by Shakeys Pizza at the Blue Eagle Gym.
Packing her lean hands with power, Manalo spewed 26 hits, including 23 kills, while drawing solid backup from Rachel Anne Daquis, Ma. Josephine Cafranca and Wendy Ann Semana. Daquis had 14 points while Cafranca and Semana tossed in 10 points apiece for the Lady Tams, who dropped their opening game to the Lyceum side, 24-26, 23-25, 25-16, 19-25, last week.
FEU coach Kit Santos, however, was far from satisfied.
"This is not yet our game, we still have a lot of things to show and were just happy we won," said Santos, whose wards yielded the second set in the face of UEs solid game anchored on Suzanne Roces.
But Manalo, now FEUs skipper, stepped up for the Lady Tams in the last two sets to key the victory in the event backed by Accel, Mikasa and ABC-5.
"Shes just amazing," said Santos referring to the 22-year-old Manalo. Joey Villar
