Rookie sensation Shaina Nitura looks to spark the Adamson Lady Falcons back to winning form as they face the UP Fighting Maroons on Sunday, March 16, at the Smart Araneta Coliseum in UAAP Season 87 women’s volleyball action.

Both teams started strong this season but have since struggled, with Adamson dropping three straight matches and UP losing four in a row. 

Nitura, who has been Adamson’s go-to scorer, will need to step up once again alongside Frances Mordi to get the Lady Falcons back on track.

On the other side, UP is banking on Kassandra Doering, who had an 11-point outing against NU, to lead them to a much-needed win.

With both teams sitting at 2-4, this game is a crucial battle to keep their Final Four hopes alive. 

Will Nitura and Adamson break free from their slump, or will Doering and UP turn their season around? The answer unfolds on Sunday.
