After dealing with Trixie Malibiran's injury that cost them their opener, the Ateneo Lady Eagles bounced back to destroy Adamson, 5-0, in the UAAP women's badminton tournament at the Rizal Memorial Badminton Hall.
Cassie Lim ably replaced Malibiran in the rotation, beating Alyssa San Pedro in the second singles match, 21-7 and 21-13. Unsurprisingly, Season 76 MVP Bianca Carlos breezed past Mikaela Aquino, 21-7 and 21-7 in the first singles match.
Geva De Vera and Jana Dihiansan clinched the win for these lady shuttlers with a 21-10 and 21-7 triumph over Christine Garin and Maggie Villacorta. Carlos and Nicole Nieto then dispatched Aquino and Clydel Pada, 21-14 and 21-12 in the other doubles match.
Completing the sweep is Samantha Santos, who took care of things against Pada, 21-14 and 21-11.

Also conducting a sweep like the Lady Eagles is Far Eastern University, who accomplished it against the University of the East.
Thea Pomar beat Erycka Labay, 21-15 and 21-12 to set the tone first for the tie. Michal Duqilla then followed suit with a 21-15 and 21-8 smashing of Lyra Rosal.
Securing the tie for the Lady Tamaraws is the doubles tandem of Pomar and Hannah Tudtud. The duo beat Labay and Pamela Fernandez, 21-10 and 21-10. Duqilla and Maridel Rivera then beat out the Rosal siblings (Heide and Lyra), 22-20 and 21-18 to make it four straight.
The sweep was then secured by Tudtud, who defeated Heide, 21-9 and 21-13.

Joining the 5-0 party are the defending champions UP. The Lady Maroons showed no mercy against the University of Santo Tomas.
Team skipper Bea Bernardo kicked things off with a 21-18 and 21-18 win over Steffi Aquino, while doubling this up is Ann Maranon's 21-9 and 21-7 demolition of Airish Macalinao.
Jessie Francisco and Lea Inlayo then secured the tie with a 21-12 and 21-16 triumph over Aquino and Patricia Barredo. Bernardo and Elisha Ongcuangco then dispatched Macalinao and Victoria Vizmonte, 21-8 and 21-16.
Capping this sweep is Inlayo's 14-21 23-21 and 21-18 win over Barredo.

The only tie that did not end in a sweep is La Salle's 4-1 result over National University.
Ariane Rivera opened with a 21-13 and 21-16 win over Amica Du-ay in the first singles. Anghela Sevilla then made it 2-0 with a 21-9 and 21-18 win over Jiselle Capillo.
Doubles action also went to DLSU's favor, as team skipper Kristelle Salatan and Alyssa Leonardo won against Du-ay and Loverly Magallano, 21-8 19-21 and 21-11, while Sevilla and Aires Montilla beat Capillo and Marinel Diansay, 21-9 and 21-17.
