Former NU captain Erin Pangilinan will try to steer the ship for the Lady Bulldogs as they take on their next assignment en route to what is hopefully a first-round sweep in UAAP Season 87.
The NU Lady Bulldogs, powered by Erin Pangilinan, look to maintain their unbeaten run and inch closer to a first-round sweep when they face the struggling UP Fighting Maroons in UAAP Season 87 action on Sunday, March 9, at the Mall of Asia Arena.
At 4-0, NU has been dominant as defending champion, and Pangilinan's recent scoring surge only adds to the Lady Bulldogs' depth as they continue their bid for league supremacy.
Meanwhile, UP (2-3) hopes to snap a three-game losing skid, with Irah Jaboneta emerging as a consistent offensive weapon for head coach Benson Bocboc.
With NU eyeing a spotless first round and UP desperate to regain its footing, expect an intense battle as the Lady Bulldogs try to extend their winning streak and further cement their status as title contenders.
