DALAWANG laro na lang ang kailangang bunuin ng reigning titlist National University upang makamit ang target na outright Finals berth, habang inangkin ng Far Eastern University ang ikalawang semifinals berth nang magsipagwagi sa UAAP Season 81 women’s basketball tournament sa Araneta Coliseum.“I’m just happy we continue playing hard and we’re giving a chance for the new (players) to play also and they’re stepping up and that’s good for us. We’ll be ready for the next game which is UP na naman and I hope that we play as hard as we can again next game,” wika ni NU coach Pat Aquino matapos ang kanilang ika-12 sunod na panalo ngayong season nang muling pataubin ang UE,89-59.
