MANILA, Philippines—With seeming ease defending champion La Salle barrelled closer to the Final Four after crushing Adamson, 25-15, 25-18, 25-16, Sunday in the UAAP Season 81 women’s volleyball tournament  at Smart Araneta Coliseum.

Imposing their dreaded system and winning attitude, the Lady Spikers didn’t allow the Lady Falcons to get their bearing, pulling away in the third set, 8-2, en route to their eighth win in 11 matches.

Winning three in a row, La Salle will now need to win just one more game to assure itself of at least a playoff for a Final Four slot.
