Shaina Nitura – 170 points (152 spikes, 10 blocks, 8 aces)
Adamson’s sensational rookie has taken the league by storm, setting a UAAP rookie record with 33 points in her debut before shattering the all-time women’s scoring record with 38 points to close round 1.
Angge Poyos – 136 points (116 spikes, 13 blocks, 7 aces)
UST’s main weapon continues to deliver, replicating her stellar performance from last season and solidifying her spot as one of the league’s most dangerous hitters.
Shevana Laput – 122 points (96 spikes, 14 blocks, 12 aces) & Angel Canino – 118 points (99 spikes, 13 blocks, 6 aces)
La Salle’s dynamic duo has been instrumental in their team’s resurgence, with Laput and Canino leading the scoring charge to help the Lady Spikers climb to the no. 2 spot in the standings after a slow start.
Regina Jurado – 118 points (102 spikes, 10 blocks, 6 aces)

NU’s MVP tandem continues to dominate, with Solomon using her height to rack up blocks and Belen once again excelling from the service line to fuel the Lady Bulldogs’ undefeated run.
Nessa Bangayan – 102 points (93 spikes, 2 blocks, 7 aces)
Despite UE’s struggles, Bangayan has been a bright spot for the Lady Warriors, proving to be one of the most reliable scorers in the league.
AC Miner – 101 points (86 spikes, 12 blocks, 3 aces)
With Ateneo dealing with multiple season-ending injuries, Miner has stepped up as the Blue Eagles’ primary scorer, doing her best to keep her team in the fight.
