Adamson Lady Baby Falcons sweep UAAP Girls’ Basketball first round


Adamson University completed a three-game sweep of the UAAP Season 82 High School Girls’ Basketball Tournament’s first round after repelling De La Salle-Zobel, 56-36, Saturday at Paco Arena.

Despite heading into the game with a 2-0 record after dominant wins over Ateneo and University of Santo Tomas, Adamson head coach Ewon Arayi made sure to keep her team grounded heading into their final game of the round.

“Sabi ko sa kanila, ‘Face each opponent as if they are the strongest in the league para hindi nakukumpiyansa.’ Praise God kasi nung medyo pahuli na, mas naging okay laro namin,” the former national team stalwart said.

Holding a slim 35-30 lead early in the third canto, Adamson unleashed a 14-2 spurt capped by a Crisnalyn Padilla basket with 9:42 left to gain a 47-32 lead.

Captain Padilla was all over the statsheet after a huge 11-point outing with five rebounds and six each of steals and assists.

Meanwhile, Joan Camagong was once against at the forefront of the Lady Baby Falcons’ attack. She tallied a double-double clip of 13 points to go with 12 rebounds and three steals.

“Actually itong mga players ko halos may sakit,” Arayi shared. “Pero sabi ko nga sa kanila hindi kami pwedeng mag-dwell na may sakit kami kasi nasa giyera na kami.”

On the other hand, DLSZ’s Achrissa Maw had a monster outing with 23 rebounds and 10 points. Jeehan Ahmed added 13 points and 13 rebounds.

The Junior Lady Archers slid to third with a 1-3 slate.

Bridgette Santos paced six Tigresses in double-digit points with 17 markers to go along with 14 rebounds, seven assists, and six steals.

Nicole Tubog also stepped up with a double-double performance of 13 points and 13 boards.

UST went up to 2-1 to remain at solo second, while keeping AHS winless.

Ateneo hotshot Andrea Sarmiento was limited to single digits for the first time this season at nine points, but the young guard still led the Lady Eaglets on offense. She also ended with three rebounds, two steals, and an assist.

The second round is slated to begin next Saturday, February 1 at the same venue.
