UST continues UAAP beach volleyball domination

The University of Santo Tomas secured the first postseason spot in the UAAP Season 77 women's beach volleyball competition on Wednesday at the UE Caloocan sand court.

The rookie duo of Cherry Rondina and Rica Rivera continued their winning form in dispatching their FEU counterparts Bernadettte Pons and Charm Simborio, 21-15 and 21-16, then followed that with a 21-6 and 21-14 dismantling of UP's Arylle Magtalas and Hannah Mangulabnan.

The Female Spikers are just two wins away from sweeping the eliminations, and the corresponding incentive of an automatic finals seat and a thrice-to-beat advantage.

Trying to chase them down is La Salle, who needed three sets to defeat National University, 21-17, 20-22, and 15-9. They tote a 3-1 record, just ahead of FEU and Adamson.

UST is also undefeated in men's beach volleyball after four games, with the duo of Mark Alfafara and Kris Roy Guzman winning over UE's Edward Camposano and Carlo Almario, 21-16 and 21-12.

The other results sees defending champions NU down Ateneo, 21-19 and 21-14, Adamson soaring over La Salle, 24-22 and 21-17, and FEU easing past UP with identical 21-19 scores.
