Trisha Genesis led the Lady Falcons anew with 13 points built on 10 spikes and three service aces while May Ann Nuique and Hannah Infante added nine points apiece.

"Bilin namin kanina before the game, talagang 'yong aggressiveness, 'yong bawat bola dapat paghirapan so 'yon naman yung ginawa nila kanina even though may mga minor na mga errors pa rin,” said Adamson head coach Lerma Giron. "Pero so far so good naman 'yong performance nila."

The Lady Falcons, who improved to a 5-4 record, only needed one hour and 12 minutes to keep the Lady Warriors winless in nine straight matches.

Adamson pulled away for good in the third set after unloading an 11-1 run and never looked back at that point.

The win served as a huge comeback after the San Marcelino-based squad absorbed a 24-26, 20-25, 25-21, 25-23, 15-12 defeat at the hands of second-seeded University of Santo Tomas last May 26.

Meanwhile, Ja Lana and Dara Nieva paced UE with nine markers each.
