Far Eastern University gored through rebuilding San Sebastian in three sets, 25-17, 25-21, 25-14, in its first match in the Premier Volleyball League Collegiate Conference Sunday at Filoil Flying V Centre in San Juan.

Team captain Bernadeth Pons led the Lady Tamaraws with 13 points while Toni Rose Basas added 11.

San Sebastian, which went to two straight NCAA finals, will now make do without the lethal Grethcel Soltones, who carried the Lady Stags for the past couple of seasons.

“So far so good, and I told them to we have to start this tournament on a good note so we can end this on the same level,” said new FEU head coach George Pascua, who replaced Shaq Delos Santos. “They have to release their maximum potential in the games.”

“Of course our goal is the championship because it’s still a different when you win a championship, that’s the objective of the team.”

Nikka Dalisay led the Lady Stags with 10 points.
