Men's volleyball: UP vs DLSU

Finally, the top two teams in UAAP volleyball collide in the first round closing game. Touted as a must-see match, the Fighting Maroons faced the Archers in what proved to be one of the most exciting games in this volleyball season.

The Katipunan spikers took the first two sets at 25-20 and 25-13, respectively. But the Archers were not about to surrender and claimed the third and fourth sets, 25-23 and 25-16, to force a race to fifteen. It was do or die for both teams as they were hungry for the win.

Too bad for DLSU, UP beat them at 15-12. The Fighting Maroons are on top at the end of the first round with 7 straight wins and no losses. Whoopdedoo!

Victory at last for the Lady Maroons! After suffering 3 straight losses, they add a win to their card. They toppled the Lady Eagles in 3 straight sets: 25-19, 25-21, 25-18. :-)
