MANILA, Philippines — A sweet 16th straight win over its archrival and a stronger grip of the coveted second spot are up for grabs for La Salle when it meets Ateneo in the UAAP Season 87 women’s volleyball today at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.

Both squads will set out for battle fresh from winning sprees but La Salle will be the heavy favorite considering its mastery of Ateneo for the last eight years.

While Ateneo sports a three-game winning run, La Salle has won five of its last six games behind the lethal duo of Angel Canino and Shevana Laput, including a 25-15, 25-14, 20-25, 25-19 conquest of the Blue Eagles in the first round.

The last time La Salle bowed to Ateneo was back in Season 79 elims.
