They are coming off a tough five-setter against the UST Golden Tigresses and a win against their Katipunan neighbors UP Fighting Maroons.</p><p>Despite this, ADMU head coach Sergio Veloso wants the Eagles to remain grounded and focused on both their short-term and long-term goals.</p><p>&quot;We need to think match-by-match. [We should] not only put our focus on the Final Four because each point is important, each set is important,&quot; said the Brazilian mentor following their win against UP.</p><p>&quot;I know it&#x27;s hard because of the distance [in the standings] to FEU in fourth position. But we have two targets. A short target now for this season, we need to do our best here, and in the program, the program is long-term,&quot; he added. </p><div><a class="fr-green fr-strong" href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/sports/2024/3/24/uaap-ateneo-sends-up-to-eighth-loss-1648">READ: Ateneo sends UP to eighth loss</a></div><p>Ateneo veteran Lyann De Guzman is doing her part by keeping herself locked in for the rest of their games in Season 86, sharing that she will continue to remain engaged over the Holy Week.</p><p>&quot;Actually, wala pa kaming schedule talaga kung kailan yung magiging break namin,&quot; the 5-foot-10 outside hitter told ABS-CBN News.</p><p>&quot;But I know lang na continuous lang yung training namin and magpe-prepare pa rin kami sa second round. Andun pa rin yung mindset namin,&quot; she continued. </p><p>&quot;Hindi kami titigil sa performance namin ngayon, kasi sa nakikita ko sa team namin, nandun na kami eh.&quot;</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:960px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1711425690341IMG_3272.jpeg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/><span class="fr-inner" style="text-align:left">Ateneo’s De Guzman against UP. <em>Photo from UAAP Media.</em></span></span></span></div><p>&quot;We&#x27;re getting there sa kung anong gusto namin,&quot; she added.  </p><p>That&#x27;s why in the coming days, De Guzman will only be using it to spend time with her family while also recovering from the wear and tear that she has gone through this season.</p><p>&quot;Kung mag break man, andun pa rin yung mindset. Focus pa rin. Pero magse-spend time pa rin kami with our families,&quot; said the former FEU-Diliman standout.</p><p>De Guzman has been on a tear this season for Ateneo putting up all-around stats of 16.2 points, 11 digs, and 7.3 receptions in nine games so far this year. That is why getting enough time to get some physical and mental rest is her priority right now.</p><p>&quot;Siguro this break, pahinga lang talaga eh. Tulog lang, then sa bahay lang,&quot; De Guzman, who hails from Quezon City.</p><p>&quot;Araw araw kaming nagte-training eh, so for me, mas pipiliin kong nasa bahay lang muna para mag rest,&quot; she continued. </p><p>Fortunately for her, she will have nine days to do so as their next match is on April 4 against the 4-4 FEU Lady Tamaraws whom they are chasing for the no.4 spot in the standings.</p><p>First serve of their bout at the Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City on that day is at 4 PM.</p><div><strong>RELATED VIDEO:</strong></div><div><span class="fr-video fr-deletable fr-fvc fr-dvb fr-draggable" contenteditable="false" draggable="true"><iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/IM8lXMP7i-w?&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;rel=0" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen="" class="fr-draggable"></iframe></span><br/></div>
