Kasi minsan pag may masakit, hindi rin nalalabas kung ano &#x27;yung pinag-training-an, so sayang.&quot; Recovery is also the priority for UST captain Eya Laure, who is leading the league in scoring with 160 points through their first seven games.<ul class="op-related-articles">	<li><a href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/sports/05/22/22/uaap-usts-laure-leads-way-in-scoring-after-round-1">READ: UST&#x27;s Laure leads way in scoring after round 1</a></li></ul>The Golden Tigresses have already endured two five-set matches in the first round, and their four-set affair against the Blue Eagles last Thursday lasted over two hours and 30 minutes. &quot;Tamang recovery,&quot; Laure said on the key to maintaining her high-scoring ways for the second round. &quot;Tamang recovery po, &#x27;yun po kasi talaga ang kailangan namin.&quot;Also seeking to regroup are the Lady Spikers, who needed four sets to defeat the Lady Tamaraws last Thursday and are still stinging from defeats to NU and UST. La Salle will be immediately tested as they open the first round with a rematch against the Lady Bulldogs, and assistant coach Benson Bocboc hopes that the week-long preparation will serve them well on Thursday.&quot;&#x27;Yung sa first round against NU medyo off talaga tayo,&quot; he admitted. &quot;Maghahanda tayo. Hopefully better than the last encounter.&quot;
