Photo from UAAP Media.</div>MANILA (UPDATED)— University of Santo Tomas made quick work of the University of the East to boost their hopes of earning a twice-to-beat advantage in the UAAP Season 86 women’s volleyball Final Four.This, after the Golden Tigresses defeated the Lady Warriors, 25-19, 25-9, 25-17, during their Sunday afternoon clash at the Araneta Coliseum in Quezon City.Angge Poyos led the way for the España-based squad, putting up 25 points, four receptions, and two digs as they successfully bounced back from their five-set defeat last week against Far Eastern University. Reg Jurado and Pia Abbu also delivered for UST, with the former putting up 11 points and six receptions, while the latter had six markers. Cassie Carballo posted 17 excellent sets, and Detdet Pepito finished with 13 digs and 11 receptions.UST head coach Kung Fu Reyes said during the post-game presser that aside from inching closer to a semis bonus following this win, it is also equally important for them to end the eliminations on a high note.&quot;Napaka importante nitong game na ito pero mas importante yung lalaruin namin sa last game kasi nga dun namin made-determine kung saan kami pupwesto,&quot; he said after the game.&quot;We aim for a twice-to-beat advantage. Syempre lahat, especially kaming tatlo, La Salle, NU, tiyaka kami – kami yung mga saling pusa doon sa tatlo eh so makiki-gulo lang talaga kami – paninidigan na namin kung anong meron kami kasi well-scouted na lahat ng teams.&quot; &quot;Well-prepared na lahat, so patibayan na ‘to. Malaking bagay itong panalo na ‘to especially yung last game namin by Saturday against La Salle,&quot; he continued.<div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1713688667357IMG_3521.jpeg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt="The UST Golden Tigresses.
