FAR EASTERN University made St. Benilde look nowhere near like champions.

Showing full control from the get-go, the Lady Tamaraws blasted the Lady Blazers in straight sets, 25-16, 25-18, 25-18, in the Shakey’s V-League Season 13 Collegiate Conference Monday at Philsports Arena in Pasig City.

Bernadeth Pons unloaded eight attacks in an 11-point performance to power the Lady Tamaraws to a surprisingly easy victory over the reigning NCAA queens.

“I’m just happy we won our first game,” said FEU coach Shaq delos Santos. “We had good execution of our plays. But of course, we must continue to practice.”

Toni Basas, who sealed the match with an attack, and Remy Palma fired 10 points each in the game where the Lady Tamaraws built double-digit leads right in the first set.
