Ateneo notches third straight Shakey’s win

ATENEO streaked to its third straight triumph with an easy 25-14, 25-20, 25-13 drubbing of University of Perpetual Help in the Shakey’s V-League on Thursday night at the Filoil Flying V Arena.

The Lady Eagles made quick work of the defending NCAA champions with Fille Cainglet and Thai guest player Phee Nok Kesinee leading the attack with 12 points each.

“We played very hard especially now that we clashed with the defending champions,” said Ateneo coach Roger Gorayeb.

The Lady Eagles, who moved within a win of a Group A sweep, already secured a quarterfinal berth along with Group B leaders San Sebastian and UST.

Jorella De Jesus also starred in key plays for the Lady Eagles by scattering six points, including a kill that made the count out of reach, 17-6. Jan Edward B. Ballesteros and Rodolfo Serafin Jerome T. Lozada, Contributors
