It was FEU'S best finish since joining the league’s inaugural tournament in 2004 and placing fourth the previous conference. Shaira Gonzales and Cherry May Vivas contributed 17 and 15 points apiece as the Lady Tamaraws of coach Nestor Pamilar completed a sweep their best-of-three series for third place. "Second time naming pumasok sa semis. At least from fourth place, nag-third place kami ngayon," said Pamilar. Despite feeling sorry for their dismal performance in the quarterfinals where they posted only one win in five games, Pamilar said that he was still satisfied with his Lady Tams’ achievement. "Sabi ko nga sa kanila, ang ganda ng placing namin after ng eliminations, kung nagpursige lamang sana sila sa quarterfinals, siguro naranasan nilang lumaban sa finals," related Pamilar. "At least, kahit kulang kami, napatunayan ng mga bata na kaya nilang manalo," he added referring to a missing link in former open spiker Mikaela Irish Morada who quit the team for personal reasons. Alumna Jinny Mondejar paced the Lady Stags’ losing cause with 17 points while Analyn Joy Benito added 15 and rookie Dafna Robinos chipped in 12 markers.
