The finals matchup volleyball fans have been eagerly awaiting is now set. On Wednesday, our Lady Spikers, the defending champions, face off against surging UST Tigresses, which swept the 2nd round. The eliminations saw both teams split their encounters, with each team needing a decisive 5th set to eke out a win. We should expect a very exciting matchup in Game 1 on Wednesday, February 24.

Lady Spikers overwhelm NU for 12th win
Posted by GREENARCHERS.PH
The Lady Spiker’s win today wasn’t a surprise at all. What is shocking though was that the winless NU squad was able to win a set. You could chalk that up to overconfidence on the part of our volleybelles. Nevertheless, with the Lady Spiker's 25-15, 19-25, 25-15, 25-13 demolition job on the Lady Bulldogs, they are assured of a twice-to-beat advantage in the semis. A win over also-ran UE on Wednesday will solidify their top position at the end of the eliminations.
Charleen Cruz led the team with 14 points and 11 attacks.

The Lady Spikers will bring their perfect slate on to the new year as they fashioned out a 25-18, 26-24, 25-14 win over UP today to remain on top of the helm. Stephanie Mercado led the team to their 5th win in as many games with 17 hits. Charleen Cruz followed with 13 points. Reserves Camille Cerveza and Isabella Lepping also contributed significantly as they each had 3 service aces out of the team’s total of 11.
In the men's division, the Green Spikers absorbed its 3rd setback in 5 games as they fall to Adamson 25-22, 25-14, 25-22. Chris Macasaet topscored for the Green Archers with 19 points
Our volleyball teams will resume their campaign starting Jan 9 as the Lady Spikers face NU while the Green Spikers take on FEU the next day.

Cruzin’ To Their 4th win
Posted by GREENARCHERS.PH
The Lady Spikers simply outclassed UE today 25-21, 25-20, 25-21 to stay unbeaten in UAAP Season 72. The score though does not clearly reflect how our team dominated the contest. If not for a series of service errors, the margin would have been staggering. It was clear from the start that the Lady Spikers were heavily favored to claim their 4th win. Charleen Cruz, who had 12 points, was the best player of the game.
Over at the men’s division, the Green Spikers prevailed over National U in 5 sets to notch their 2nd win in 4 games.

Lady Spikers repulse Ateneo 3-0 to stay undefeated
Posted by GREENARCHERS.PH
Despite a number of slip-ups they committed the entire game, the Lady Spikers were still able to knock-off Ateneo in a straight-set win (25-17, 28-26, 25-23) today. They now carry a 2-0 slate which puts them on top of the leaderboard.
Not even Ateneo’s new fashion statement could change their fortunes against the defending champions. The Lady Eagles, sporting their trend-setting uniforms were not able to capitalize on the 19 errors made by our volleybelles.
Stephanie Mercado again paced the Lady Spikers with 17 points followed by Jacqueline Alarca and Charleen Cruz with 11 and 10 respectively. Next contest is this Sunday against Adamson.

Steph up into Cruz control on Opening Day
Posted by GREENARCHERS.PH
They may have shown some rustiness at the start but in the end, the Lady Spikers proved that they are still the team to beat this UAAP season. The defending champions started their campaign on a high note with a come-from-behind win over pre-tournament favorite and recently crowned V-League champion UST Tigresses 20-25, 25-20, 22-25, 25-22, 15-11 today.
With the win, the Lady Spikers got some payback against the very same team that gave them a straight-set beating in the University Games last October.
Stephanie Mercado and Charleen Cruz led the team with 28 hits and 21 points respectively. Next game is against Ateneo this Friday.
