The NU Lady Bulldogs look to complete a historic sweep to end a six-decade wait for a UAAP championship when they meet the La Salle Lady Spikers in the potential title clincher. Tune in here for LIVE UPDATES! UAAPSeason84
“It’s just different if you face La Salle, and I can’t really figure out why. Maybe it’s their incredible history under Coach Ramil [de Jesus] and his many championship crowns,” Belen said in Filipino after Game 1.Now with their backs against the wall, it’s the Lady Spikers’ turn to show eagerness in facing the Lady Bulldogs, but outhustling this NU team on a historic roll is clearly easier said than done.
While Belen, Alyssa Solomon, Cess Robles, and Ivy Lacsina all scored at least 13 points each in Game 1, no La Salle player even breached double-digit scoring in the tough loss. Rookie of the Year candidate Leiah Malaluan only had 6 points – already a team-high – while Jolina dela Cruz and Best Middle Blocker frontrunner Thea Gagate scored only 5 each.
After nine straight set losses this season alone to the Lady Bulldogs, it is now or never for the Lady Spikers if they want a shot to complete their resurgence atop the UAAP. Will the league’s new faces finally make history after a six-decade wait or will its historically elite volleyball program hang on to fight another day?
