The Ateneo Blue Eagles are aiming for their fourth consecutive win as they take on the De La Salle Lady Spikers in the second-round action of UAAP Season 87 women’s volleyball today at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
Ateneo, currently at 4-5, is fighting for a spot in the Final Four, while La Salle (6-3) seeks to maintain its hold on second place and secure a twice-to-beat semifinal advantage.
The Blue Eagles, despite injuries to key players, have shown resilience with senior hitters Lyann De Guzman and AC Miner leading the charge.
After a tough 1-5 start, Ateneo has found its rhythm, winning three straight matches, including a sweep of Adamson last March 29.
La Salle, coming off a thrilling win over UST, will look to extend its dominance over Ateneo, which has struggled against them in recent seasons.
