The Adamson Soaring Falcons are hellbent on finally ending a four-game, six-year losing skid against the DLSU Green Spikers.
Adamson takes another crack of a first UAAP Season 87 win as the Soaring Falcons clash with the DLSU Green Spikers in the men’s volleyball tournament, February 22, Saturday at the FilOil EcoOil Centre, San Juan, Manila.
After falling prey to the Ateneo Blue Eagles, Kenneth Paulino and his squad look to regroup and score their first win over the Taft-based squad since Season 81.
Paulino took the scoring cudgels in that four-set defeat, tallying a team-high 13 markers while Ahmed Tahiluddin churned in 11 points.
However, the duo were the only players in double figures for Adamson compared to Ateneo’s quartet of offensive production led by Ken Batas’ 24-point
Ronn Domingo tallied 15 excellent sets while libero Anrhil Cuadra ended up with 12 excellent receptions and 11 excellent digs.
It was back on April 23, 2019 when the Soaring Falcons last beat the Green Spikers via 25-14, 23-25, 25-19, 25-19 victory.
Since then, Adamson lost their last four meetings over De La Salle. Will tomorrow be the day the San Marcelino–based squad finally nail a breakthrough win?
