MANILA â Collegiate rivals Ateneo Lady Eagles and De La Salle University Lady Spikers are set to cross paths in the UAAP Season 80 womenâs volleyball today at the SM Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City.
Game time is at 4 p.m.
The Lady Eagles is currently on a four-game winning run while the Lady Spikers is coming from a defeat. They are set to break their tie at 4-2 card.
Lady Eagles star Bea de Leon said they are preparing for the tendency of the Lady Spikers venting its ire on them following the latterâs shock defeat to Adamson Lady Falcons last week.
âYou know with the Ateneo-La Salle match, you can never really tell who has the advantage,â said De Leon. âAs we always say, Ateneo-La Salle, no stats needed, nothing. No standings.â
âWe are wary of La Salleâs ability to bounce back from a loss,â she added. âHopefully we get to take a slight advantage of that (streak). But I think itâs gonna be really close. You know La Salle.â
Lady Spikers head coach Ramil de Jesus, for his part, said he is just hoping that his players will regain their championship form after their early struggles in the elimination round.
âAng sa akin lang, manalo o matalo basta lumabas âyung character inside the court. Kung hindi lalabas âyung character, âyun âyung problema kasi hindi La Salle âyun. Doon ako nagwo-worry kung papano âyun,â said De Jesus.
Before the Lady Eagles-Lady Spikers battle, University of Santo Tomas Golden Tigresses (2-4) and Far Eastern University Lady Tamaraws will tangle at 2 p.m./PN
