The Adamson Lady Falcons look to frustrate a third Final Four contender as UAAP Season 87 volleyball action returns from the Holy Week break.
With their Final Four hopes officially dashed, the Adamson Lady Falcons are flying free—and dangerous.
Behind record-breaking rookie Shaina Nitura, the Lady Falcons look to play spoiler one more time as they take on the DLSU Lady Spikers in the UAAP Season 87 women’s volleyball tournament on Wednesday, April 23.
Game time is set for 3:00 p.m. at the Mall of Asia Arena.
Though Adamson sits at 5-7 and is out of semifinal contention, the San Marcelino-based squad has refused to fade quietly.
In fact, they’ve turned into the league’s most chaotic dark horse, stringing together back-to-back wins over defending champion NU and current no. 4 FEU — and they’re not done yet.
Nitura, who continues to shatter UAAP rookie scoring records, has emerged as an all-time force, carrying the Lady Falcons through a late-season resurgence that’s caused headaches for Final Four contenders.
Now, Adamson sets its sights on La Salle — a team the Lady Spikers would love to drag into deeper postseason uncertainty.
The Lady Spikers (8-4) are reeling after a stinging five-set loss to UP and need just one more win to clinch a semifinal berth. But against a fearless Adamson crew with nothing to lose, that task might be trickier than expected.
