Amid an up-and-down UAAP Season 88 women's basketball campaign, the Adamson Lady Falcons aim for stability when they take on the unbeaten UST Growling Tigresses.
The Adamson Lady Falcons look to sustain their winning momentum when they face the undefeated UST Growling Tigresses in the UAAP Season 88 women’s basketball tournament on Saturday, October 18, at 7 p.m. at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
After a shaky 1-3 start to the year, the Lady Falcons have steadied the ship with some victories and now aim to notch their first win streak of the season against last year’s finalists.
Cris Padilla, who scored eight points in their last outing, will be counted on to provide consistent production alongside veterans Cheska Apag and Elaine Etang.
Head coach Jed Colonia hopes his squad can maintain its growing confidence and defensive grit as they take on the red-hot Tigresses.
A win over UST would not only mark a major statement for Adamson but also thrust them back into the thick of the Final Four race.
However, the Lady Falcons will have their hands full against a UST side firing on all cylinders and riding a perfect 5-0 record.
Still, Adamson’s grit and renewed energy could make this matchup one of the most intriguing showdowns of the round.
