THE University of Southern Philippines-Foundation (USP-F) Baby Panthers picked up where they left off as they opened the Cebu Schools Athletic Foundation Inc. (Cesafi) volleyball season on a winning note, beating the University of San Jose-Recoletos (USJ-R) Baby Jaguars, 25-22, 25-11, on Sunday, Sept. 15, 2019, at the University of San Carlos (USC) gym.

USP-F was tested in the first set after USJ-R tied the game at 16-all. But the Baby Panthers proved to have a sharp end game as they scored eight points and limited their opponent to five to come away with a 25-22 score.

The Baby Panthers pushed the gas pedal further and crushed the Baby Jaguars, 25-11, in the second set to nail a straight-set win.

It was a double victory for the Baby Panthers as the secondary girls’ team showed off their fearsome form with a commanding win over the University of Cebu Lapu-Lapu-Mandaue (UCLM), 25-8, 25-17, in a game that served as the tournament’s curtain-opener.

USP-F is also the defending champion in the secondary girls’ division. (RSC)
