Ginawa ko lang &#x27;yung best ko nu&#x27;ng pinasok ako ulit nu&#x27;ng fourth set,&quot; said Altea, who took over the offense in the fourth set as UST wrapped the match in one hour and 45 minutes.The Tigresses&#x27; struggles in the third frame extended early into the fourth as they trailed, 2-4.Altea ignited a decisive 6-0 blast with three consecutive aces as UST gained control of the set. The Tigresses widened the gap 21-10 before Altea, Bron and Poyos delivered the finishing blows in a 4-2 closing run.UST tweaked its rotation in the third set but it backfired as CSB turned a 2-6 deficit into a 20-10 advantage after mounting a telling rally on its way to averting a shutout.The Tigresses, who swept Enderun Colleges in the opener on Sunday, take on Letran on Tuesday.The Lady Blazers failed to capitalize on the momentum of their sweep of Vietnamese guest team Ho Chi Minh City Volleyball Club last Sunday to slide to a 1-1 win-loss card.Mary Grace Borromeo had 12 points on 10 spikes and two kill blocks to pace CSB. Mhonniecka Joyce Soliven added 12 markers and Camila Bartolome had eight in a losing effort.The Lady Blazers seek to rebound against Enderun on Tuesday.
