San Beda Lady Spikers Opens Volleyabll Campaign Versus Lady Stags

Defending women’s champion San Sebastian College starts its quest for a seventh straight championship when it tackles host San Beda College at the resumption of the National Collegiate Athletic Association volleyball tournament at the San Beda Gym in Mendiola, Manila.

The Lady Stags, led by two-time Most Valuable Player awardee Joy Benito and teammates Karen Berbano, Dafna Robiños, Bea Uy and libero Mae Crisostomo, trade volleys against the SBC Lady Spikers at 9 a.m., right after the clash of their junior teams at 8 a.m.

The Recto-based volleybelles will be playing minus Bonsai Mirasol and Bamcie Belen, who graduated last year, and ace hitter Elaine Cruz, giving the Lady Spikers an even chance of pulling an upset.

The San Beda Lady Spikers, who will be led by mainstays Cherry Quizon, Coline Malana, Janine Marciano, Ces Molina and Mona Diolazo, will be eyeing a better finish after making it to the Final Four last year after a long wait.

San Beda Red Spikers and San Sebastian also clash today at 10 a.m. for the men's volleyball game.
