NU sweeps tough Hope Christian for Pool A top seed; takes on HRC in semis tomorrow



NU sweeps tough Hope Christian for Pool A top seed; takes on HRC in semis tomorrow


Nazareth School of National University looked to roll over Hope Christian High School but Jerry Yee’s girls didn’t give the Pool A top seed spot on a silver platter to the three-time UAAP Girls Division Champions as they made a game of it in the second set.

Playing good floor coverage and resiliency in their attacks, HCHS tied the match at 23-all. NU setter Joyme Cagande finished off HCHS with a deft serve that led to a NU point then a service ace to close out the match, 25-15 and 25-23.

Michaela Belen led NSNU with 10 points while Alyssa Solomon added five for head coach Raymond Castillo’s team.

With the win, NSNU claimed the top spot of Pool A and will battle Holy Rosary College in the crossover semi-finals on Saturday, November 25.

In the other semi-finals, De La Salle Lipa will play Hope Christian High School.
