Tin Ubaldo, for her part, posted 13 excellent sets with one kill, one block and two aces including the one that served as a game-point.
“Siyempre mas maganda ‘yong ganitong ‘trend, naga-eye kami na makapasok sa Final Four ulit,” said FEU head coach Tina Salak.
“At the end of the day, kailangan naming mag-aim sa goal namin… na ‘di mawala ‘yon,” she added.
Khy Cepada and Nessa Bangayan produced another double-digit scoring effort of 14 points apiece in a losing effort.
The Tamaraws rose to third spot with a 3-2 card while the Warriors suffered their fifth loss in as many outings.
Up next for FEU are the Adamson Lady Falcons this Saturday, March 8, at the same venue.
