'I thought that they were beatable this season.” The UST Golden Tigresses prove to be early contenders after pulling off the biggest upset yet of the season against defending champion NU. UAAPSeason85
MANILA, Philippines — Despite facing some setbacks, the UST Golden Tigresses achieved an unlikely feat – toppling the seemingly invincible NU Lady Bulldogs in five sets.
“I thought that they were beatable this season because this wasn’t the first game that NU played five sets, the last time was against Adamson,” said rookie Regina Jurado in Filipino after the game. Head coach Emilio “Kung Fu” Reyes was not surprised with his ward’s performance, having mentored Laure since her days with the UST Junior Golden Tigresses.
“We are happy because [we beat] the defending champions and we want to learn from them as well,” she continued.
