MANILA -- Far Eastern University extended its women's football dynasty to a fourth season on Saturday, defeating De La Salle University 2-0 in the championship match at the UP Diliman Football Stadium.
The Lady Tamaraws completed a flawless campaign in the UAAP Season 88 women's football tournament, going unbeaten in the competition to lift their 14th overall title in the sport.
FEU is the first team to accomplish a four-peat since La Salle's dynasty from Seasons 65–68.
"It's a good gift for the graduating players," said coach Let Dimzon. "Experiencing four championships tapos ga-graduate sila — for them it's memorable. Even before we went here, they were very confident na makukuha namin yung game."
FEU set the tone early as Judie Arevalo's 15th-minute header off a corner kick put the Lady Tamaraws on the path to glory.
La Salle pressed for an equalizer, but chances from Jodie Banzon, Chenny Dañoso, and Mikaela Villacin went unanswered.
Failing to convert those opportunities ultimately cost La Salle, as FEU held firm to retain its crown.
In the 90+3 minute, second-half substitute and 2025 FIFA Futsal Women's World Cup national team member Regine Rebosura capped off her collegiate career with a goal off another corner to seal the win.
"Lahat ng mga pinaghirapan namin, it's not about the game, it lies behind the sacrifices namin during the training," said Dimzon. "I think lahat ng mga paghihirap nila, mga sacrifices nila, napalitan na. Nahirapan kami with La Salle. There's a lot of good attacking also from La Salle. Yun lang talaga, yan yung winning mentality ng FEU na hindi kami bibigay."

The Lady Tamaraws won all of their matches in Season 88 and conceded only three draws throughout their campaign.
They have now won 13 straight matches dating back to the second round of Season 87, and are unbeaten in 32 matches overall.
This championship also marks FEU's second collegiate title this Season 88, following their earlier triumph in women's athletics.
With the collegiate men's and high school boys' football divisions still underway, FEU has a chance to secure its fourth football treble.
During the awarding ceremony, several players were recognized for their standout performances.
Lady Tamaraws captain Jonela Albino claimed the Most Valuable Player award, while teammates Regine Rebosura and Jessa May Lehayan earned Best Midfielder and Best Goalkeeper honors, respectively.
Arevalo, who finished the tournament with eight goals, took the Golden Boot award.
From La Salle, Elisha Lubiano and Jodie Banzon were named Best Defender and Rookie of the Year.
Ateneo's Jada Bicierro took home Best Striker after scoring six goals, while the Blue Eagles also received the Fair Play Award for accumulating the fewest bookings.
The Blue Eagles claimed bronze, marking their first podium finish since Season 79.
