(UPDATE) MANILA, Philippines: UNIVERSITY of Santo Tomas (UST) unleashed a lethal weapon in slaying Cignal and College of Saint Benilde (CSB) played true to form to emerge men's and women's champions of the Philippine National Volleyball Federation (PNVF) Challenge Cup on Saturday night at the Rizal Memorial Coliseum in Manila.

Joshua Ybañez, only 5-foot-6, was more than a David in UST's lineup as he unleashed a high-flying and all-over-the-court act in the Tigers' 20-25, 25-22, 25-22, 19-25, 15-13 slaying of many-time club champion Cignal, which won the men's tournament inaugurals last year.
