Adamson secured a much-needed win after dominating FEU, 67-39, in its last outing.
The victory allowed the Lady Falcons to forge a three-way tie for fourth with the Lady Tamaraws and the DLSU Lady Archers, as all three teams hold identical 4-6 records with four games left in the elimination round.
Cheska Apag led from the front for Adamson with 15 points built on five three-pointers, as Elaine Etang chipped 12 markers and Kemi Adeshina tallied a double-double outing of 11 points and 10 rebounds.
The Lady Falcons, however, will have to overcome a daunting hurdle in the streaking Lady Bulldogs, who have won eight straight and already punched their ticket to the Final Four.
