The UST Golden Tigresses will look to extend their win streak to four at the expense of an up-and-down UP team in UAAP Season 87.
Detdet Pepito and the UST Golden Tigresses will look to extend their UAAP Season 87 winning streak to four games when they take on the UP Fighting Maroons on Wednesday, March 5, at the Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City.
Currently at 3-1, UST is surging in the standings, with Pepito anchoring the team’s floor defense as they continue to chase defending champion NU.
Starting a busy week, the Golden Tigresses aim to stay sharp against a UP squad desperate to snap a two-game skid.
The Fighting Maroons (2-2) will rely on veteran Nica Celis to ignite their offense, but UST’s balanced attack and defensive stability make them a tough challenge.
With momentum on their side, the Tigresses have their sights set on keeping their hot streak alive.
