Sinapuso talaga namin at kitang-kita ko po sa lahat na lahat kami gustung-gusto manalo. Para naman sa kanilang lahat tong game namin tonight, she continued. </p><p>Bella Belen also bounced back from her two-point outing in their previous game by delivering 14 points, 14 receptions, and seven digs for the Lady Bulldogs. </p><div><a class="fr-green fr-strong" href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/sports/2024/4/10/no-excuses-for-belen-after-2-point-performance-vs-ateneo-2136">READ: No excuses for Belen after 2-point performance vs. Ateneo</a></div><p>&quot;Yung mindset talaga namin is matalo sila ngayon at manalo kami ngayon. Kailangang gawin namin yung best namin kasi hindi siya magiging madali, kasi champion team yung La Salle. Gusto rin nilang manalo pero dapat mas gusto naming manalo,&quot; added the Season 84 ROTY-MVP.</p><p>Tied at 22 late in the fourth frame, Alinsug scored a huge crosscourt kill to give the Norman Miguel-led team a one-point lead. </p><p>Baby Jyne Soreño&#x27;s attack in the next play went outside, putting NU at match point, and Erin Pangilinan delivered the closing blow for the Jhocson spikers as they now move up to 10-2 in the league standings.</p><p>Meanwhile, the Lady Spikers, who now sit at 9-2, were led by Shevana Laput&#x27;s 21 points, Thea Gagate&#x27;s 12, and Alleiah Malaluan&#x27;s eight markers.</p><p>La Salle was once again playing without reigning Most Valuable Player Angel Canino, who has now missed three straight games due to an injury to her right hand.</p><p>However, Belen said that they still went into this game with the mindset that the La Salle star would be suiting up for the Taft-based squad. </p><div><a class="fr-green fr-strong" href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/sports/2024/4/9/uaap-la-salle-still-learning-to-play-sans-angel-canino-says-noel-orcullo-2254">READ: La Salle still learning to play sans Angel Canino, says Noel Orcullo</a></div><p>&quot;Kami po kasi, hindi namin inisip na hindi maglalaro si Angel,&quot;  expressed Bella.</p><p>&quot;Yung preparation namin these past few days, talagang inisip namin na maglalaro siya. Volleyball naman po is a team sport. Talagang sabi namin hangga&#x27;t buo kami, hangga&#x27;t walang naliligaw sa amin, hangga&#x27;t isa lang yung goal namin, magagawa namin and walang imposible,&quot; she ended. </p><p>NU will next face Adamson University on Saturday at the Philsports Arena in Pasig, and they will close the elimination round against Far Eastern University.</p><p>On the other hand, DLSU will face Adamson University on April 17, Ateneo de Manila University on April 21, and University of Sto.
