Nitura and Sagaysay displayed exceptional skill and teamwork, overpowering UPIS's Khloe Long and Janella Guarino with their relentless attacks and solid defense.  

With eyes set on redemption after finishing second last year, the Lady Falcons aim to replicate their success on the sand court and add another championship to Adamson's illustrious sports history. 

Meanwhile, the boys team represented by Brandy Clemente, Tommy Castrodes, and CJ Dominguito, faced a tough challenge against National University Nazareth School, bowing in straight sets, 18-21, 19-21 in a tightly contested match, which saw the San Marcelino-based squad go toe-to-toe with their foe.
