La Salle and National University took care of business on Sunday to maintain their hold atop the standings in the women's basketball tournament of the UAAP.
The defending champions coasted to a 48-39 victory over rivals Ateneo, while last season's runners-up handled Far Eastern University, 56-40.
The Archers rode on a strong first half, limiting the Lady Eagles to just 17 points in the first half and erected a lead as large as twenty points in the third quarter. The ladies of Erika Dy did manage to whittle down the lead, but the margin was too large to overcome, sending them to their third straight defeat.
Cass Santos led the balanced scoring attack for DLSU with eight points, with Trisha Piatos and Nicole Garcia each adding seven markers.
Danica Jose led Ateneo with 17 points and 22 rebounds, but got little help offensively from her teammates, who shot a combined 7/38 from the field.
The Lady Bulldogs overcame a four-point halftime deficit with a strong second-half performance. Highlighting that performance was a 19-4 third quarter output, with NU forcing the Lady Tamaraws to go 2/14 from the field and forcing eleven turnovers.
Kristine Abriam led the charge with sixteen points, while Afril Bernardino contriubted a double-double with twelve points and ten boards.
Claire Castro led FEU with thirteen markers, alongside eight rebounds and five rejections.
The other two games featured one-point victories for UE and UST to set up a five-way tie at 2-3.
The Lady Warriors needed five more minutes to stun Adamson, 54-53, while the Tigresses kept UP winless this season, 44-43.
Ruthlaine Tacula managed to steal the ball from Zhalyn Mateo to preserve the victory, seconds after missing the second free throw. Tacula would finish with thirteen points, twelve rebounds and seven assists to lead the Lady Warriors, who had the chance to complete the comeback in regulation had Eunique Chan made the putback attempt before the buzzer.
Mateo and Jingky Balasta led the Lady Falcons with fourteen points each and a combined total of fifteen rebounds. Adamson led by seven with under three minutes left before UE's comeback.
The Tigresses remained steady as they survived a comeback attempt from the Lady Maroons. Lore Rivera preserved the victory with the steal off Antonia Wong with four seconds remaining.
Rivera would finish with a game-high thirteen rebounds along with seven points and three steals. Kim Reyes topscored for UST with eleven points, while Maica Cortes provided a double-double with ten points and eleven boards.
