The FEU Lady Tamaraws look to make the most of their remaining games in the elimination round of the UAAP Season 86 women's volleyball tournament.
Far Eastern University plans not to get complacent despite securing a Final Four slot in the UAAP Season 86 women's volleyball tournament.
This was after the Lady Tamarraws beat the University of the East in four sets 25-19, 25-15, 22-25, 25-16, at the Smart Araneta Coliseum in Cubao on Wednesday, April 17.
Setter Tin Ubaldo emphasized the need for FEU to continue their winning form ahead of the last few games in the elimination round.
"Despite being motivated, kailangan pa rin namin pumokpok. Kailangan gamitin 'yung motivation sa next games namin. Siguro maganda siyang way para mabaon namin next game 'yung motivation throughout sa second round," said Ubaldo.
Chenie Tagaod who lead the charge in their win over UE, finishing with 21 points built on 19 attacks, one block, and one service ace, echoed the sentiment.
"Laging sinasabi ng coaches samin na talagang kahit nakapasok na kami sa Final Four, kailangan trabaho pa rin. Hindi namin kakalimutan mga kulang namin. Kailangan mas magtiwala kami sa sistemang binibigay samin," Tagaod said during the post-game press conference.
