The Lady Baby Falcons then shut the door on Christel De Guzman to wrap up the match.Alexandra Libra got five points, while Jasmine Ramos had four for Holy Rosary, which squandered a 20-14 advantage in the first set.Meanwhile, the Green Stallions downed Chiang Kai-shek College, 25-16, 25-22, for back-to-back wins in Pool A.Raizah Mamailao pounded 10 of her game-high 11 points on attacks while Althea Sumague and Vida Caringal got eight and seven markers, respectively, for La Salle-Lipa, which inched closer to securing a quarterfinal seat.“Definitely it’s a big help getting our second win kasi nga top two lang ‘yung papasok. Mahirap matalo so dapat wala talaga, so I’m very happy with our win,” said La Salle-Lipa coach Imelda Mendoza.The Blue Dragons failed to capitalize on their upset win over defending champion California Academy on Wednesday to slip to a 1-1 card.Shamira Pantoja had nine points while Sachie Tud and Gwyneth Mangao got four each for Chiang Kai-shek.In the other Pool A match, Bethel Academy rebounded from an opening day loss with a drubbing of debuting Lyceum of the Philippines University.It took the Bethelites only 43 minutes to dispose of the Junior Lady Pirates behind Shane Reterta’s 10 points.Last year’s third placer Bacolod Tay Tung began its Pool C campaign on the right track after outlasting the University of Santo Tomas, 24-26, 25-23, 25-20, on Wednesday.On the other hand, De La Salle-Zobel bested last edition’s runner-up Naga College Foundation also in a come-from-behind fashion, 23-25, 25-20, 29-27.
