Angge Poyos’ injury adds challenge for UST in UAAP Finals against NU


University of Santo Tomas’ top spiker Angge Poyos hurt her right ankle during the second set of Game One of the UAAP Season 86 Women’s Volleyball Finals against National University on Saturday.

With the scoreline at 11-10 in favor of the Golden Tigresses, Alyssa Solomon went for a powerful hit off a combination play to tie the game.

During an attempt to deny Solomon in that play, Poyos landed on teammate Em Banagua’s foot, twisting her right ankle.
