UAAP volley: La Salle seeks 4th straight win

by Kristel Satumbaga

Defending champion La Salle tries to pull away from the rest of the field when it duels University of the Philippines today in UAAP women’s volleyball at the Smart Araneta Coliseum in Quezon City.

Match is at 4 p.m. with the Lady Spikers seeking their fourth straight victory to cement their hold of solo top spot.

Neophyte Jolina Dela Cruz continues to impress with her smart attacks as she banners La Salle’s offensive charge, along with Desiree Cheng, May Luna, Tin Ogunsanya and setter Michelle Cobb.

UP, meanwhile, aims to regain lost footing after bowing to University of Santo Tomas, 21-25, 25-22, 25-216, 25-20, last week that put them on a three-way tie for second place at 2-1.

Expected to counter La Salle’s offense are Tots Carlos, Isa Molde and Ayel Estranero.

Also out to bounce back from a recent loss is Far Eastern University as it takes on UST at 2 p.m.
