Defending champion NU Bulldogs will beout to prove that they still have UST’s number in their first meeting since the Finals of UAAP Season 86.
Bella Belen and Alyssa Solomon will look to continue the NU Lady Bulldogs’ dominance as they take on Angge Poyos and the UST Golden Tigresses in a highly-anticipated UAAP Season 87 clash on Sunday, March 16, at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
This matchup is more than just a battle of streaking teams—it’s a rematch of last season’s UAAP Finals, where NU swept UST to claim the championship.
This year, NU has remained unstoppable, winning all six of their games so far, while UST has recovered from an opening-day loss to win five straight.
Poyos, the Tigresses’ breakout star, hopes to lead UST past their biggest hurdle, but NU’s well-oiled attack, spearheaded by Belen and Solomon, stands in their way.
With both squads in top form, will NU stay undefeated, or can UST finally break through against the defending champions?
The answer awaits in this must-watch showdown.
