Third year open spiker Johna Dolorito then powered a 3-0 answer to deliver the match point, 24-16. But San Beda posed a threat when Chynna Castllo fueled a massive 5-0 rampage that allowed the Lady Red Spikers to pull to within three points, 24-21.Sophomore Joan Doguna led the charge for Lyceum with 17 points while Dolorito finished with 14 markers.
