UAAP: Shaina Nitura, Adamson look to stun another Final Four contender in FEU

Fresh off a seismic upset over powerhouse NU, rookie sensation Shaina Nitura and the Adamson Lady Falcons aim to ride their momentum into another surprise win as they take on the FEU Lady Tamaraws in UAAP Season 87 action on Saturday, April 12, at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.

The Lady Falcons (4-7) are brimming with belief after toppling the defending champions, and they’ll look to replicate that giant-slaying form against another Final Four hopeful. 

Nitura, who has been rewriting the record books with her scoring outbursts, will once again be the focal point as Adamson fights to keep its fading playoff hopes alive.

But FEU (8-4), led by steady skipper Tin Ubaldo, are equally hungry — not just for a win, but for a coveted top-2 spot that comes with a twice-to-beat advantage. 

The Lady Tams, playing their third game in just a week, will need to dig deep to overcome fatigue and stay on track in the heated race toward the postseason.

With one team fighting for survival and the other for positioning, expect a hard-fought clash as Adamson and FEU battle under the bright lights of the Big Dome.
