Volleyball: FEU claims twice-to-beat bonus in SSL q'finals

MANILA -- Far Eastern University swept the University of the East, 25-23, 25-17, 27-25, to secure a twice-to-beat advantage in the quarterfinals of the Shakey's Super League Collegiate Pre-Season Championship, Sunday at the Rizal Memorial Coliseum in Manila.

Faida Bakanke hammered 14 points on 11 hits, two aces and a block while multiple players scored at least five points for FEU. The Lady Tams are now waiting for the result of the match between College of St. Benilde and Adamson University to determine its final placing. "It's a good game against CSB. Talagang breaks of the game lang. Siguro, binibit lang namin 'yung pagtalo na 'yun at nadala namin 'yung mga lessons dito para makabawi sa mga pagkukulang namin," said coach Manolo Refugia.

Dongallo had 23 points in a losing cause for UE , which settled for a fourth place in Pool F and a twice-to-win handicap against reigning champion and unbeaten Pool A leader National U in the quarterfinals.
