The Lemurs' first game was against Manga High, where the Lemurs annihilated the Manga High softbelles by the score of 13-0. In their second game, the Lemurs clobbered the DCPNHS Cyclones with a 4-0 victory. Thus, they barged into the finals with an undefeated 2-0 record.

The championship game was a rematch between the UB Flying Lemurs and the DCPNHS Cyclones. It was a hard-fought battle, but the UB softbelles prevailed by the score of 4-2 in the end. Standout Eva Mae Villegas sealed the win with her bunting and diving skills, allowing the team to clinch the gold medal.

"I'm so happy because our sacrifices and efforts have paid off. As the team captain, I'm so proud of our team and grateful to everyone behind this achievement, especially to our coach and our trainer.
