MANILA – Far Eastern University-DN Steel defeated Armed Forces of the Philippines, 25-16, 25-20, 25-10, Thursday at the Smart Araneta Coliseum to strengthen its semis campaign in the 2026 Spikers’ Turf Invitational Conference.

Mikko Espartero scored 10 points, all from attacks, as the Tamaraws secured their third straight win to tie Alpha Insurance for third place at 6-2 in the standings.

Xandrex Ragusta and Amet Bituin chipped in nine points each while skipper Dryx Saavedra added eight points in the one hour and 13-minute victory.

“Maganda kasi talagang tinrabaho ng mga boys ‘yung match ngayon kaya siguro naging straight sets ‘yung game (The guys really put in a great effort in today’s match, which is likely why it ended in straight sets),” FEU head coach Eddieson Orcullo said.

“After ng game kahapon nagpahinga ‘yung team. Tapos kaninang umaga nag-workout pero kasama talaga sa program ‘yun (The team rested after yesterday’s game. Then, they had a workout this morning—but that’s actually part of the program).”

Pol Gringo Salvador finished with nine points, followed by Alfredo Pangulong with eight points and 12 excellent receptions for the Cavaliers. (PNA)
