Adamson University unleashed all its fury, demolishing Far Eastern University (FEU) in a straight-set rout, 25-19, 25-19, 25-14, to claim the 2025 Women’s V-League Collegiate Challenge crown in emphatic fashion Friday at the Filoil EcoOil Centre in San Juan.

After suffering a disappointing 13-25, 22-25, 25-15, 23-25 loss in Game 2 last Wednesday, the Lady Falcons regrouped with determination and stormed back to overpower the Lady Tamaraws, securing their fourth overall title.

This is Adamson’s third V-League title, having previously won in 2008 and 2010 under coach Dulce Pante with standouts Pau Soriano and Lizlee Gata-Pantone. They also captured the 2019 Premier Volleyball League Collegiate Conference crown with Lerma Giron calling the shots and Trisha Genesis and Louie Romero leading the way.

What was anticipated to be a tightly fought decider after the teams split the first two games turned into an anticlimactic finish, as the Lady Falcons’ relentless attacking display became the defining factor, overwhelming FEU with a 47-23 edge in attacks in the one-hour, 23-minute contest.

“First of all, we praise God for the win for sustaining the players’ strength. The players simply stuck to our gameplan,” said Adamson head coach JP Yude.

Tournament Most Valuable Player (MVP) Shaina Nitura stood at the center of the Lady Falcons’ onslaught, delivering 17 points alongside 13 digs and 10 receptions, and claimed Finals MVP honors after dominating the best-of-three series with an average of 23.33 points.

Nigerian outside spiker Francess Mordi spearheaded the Adamson’s attack in Game 3 with 19 points — 18 of which came from attacks — while adding four excellent receptions, as Eloi Dote powered through with 11 points, including three aces.

Best Setter Fhei Sagaysay commanded the floor with precision, dishing out 23 perfect sets and adding three points and seven digs, keeping the Lady Falcons’ offense relentless from start to finish.

Adamson capped a dominant tournament run with an impressive 11-1 record, their lone loss coming at the hands of FEU in Game 2 of the Finals.

On the other hand, the Lady Tamaraws placed second for the third consecutive time, having lost to College of St. Benilde in 2023 and University of Santo Tomas in 2024.

Jaz Ellarina shone as the lone bright spot for the Lady Tamaraws, who had battled back from a tough 18-25, 24-26, 25-23, 23-25 loss in the opener to force a decider, contributing 11 points on four attacks, four kill blocks, and three aces.
