The Lady Baby Falcons made the history books after blasting Ateneo de Manila University (AdMU), 121-44, and registering the very first victory in the inaugural UAAP Girls Basketball Tournament last Saturday at the Paco Arena.

Joan Camagong scored the first points of the game which saw a 25-0 blitz by the girls from San Marcelino, ending the first quarter with a 37-3 tally. The lead ballooned to as high as 92 in the fourth canto with the score at 112-20.

Camagong registered a near triple-double with 23 points, nine rebounds and eight assists while Mia Miguel posted a 24-13 point-rebound double-double to go along with three steals in only 17 minutes of court time.

The UST Junior Tigresses dispatched De La Salle-Zobel, 63-45, in the second game.

The Lady Baby Falcons will next face UST on Saturday at the same venue.

The four-school tourney was launched as demonstration event this season and will be part of the General Championship tally.
