Ipinoste ng USC at USJR ang magkatulad na 3-0 kartada sa Visayas Eliminations upang maku-ha ang tiket patungo sa Boracay sa 11th Nestea Beach Volley kahapon sa La Salle-Greenhills.

 Iginupo nina Roderick Arenasa at Edward Tec-son ng USC sina Marlon Luces at Mark Sabusap ng University of St. La Salle-Bacolod, 19-21, 21-19, 15-9, sa men’s class, samantalang tinalo na-man nina Juliet Fe Marikit at Genie Sabas ng USJR sina Yvonne at Erika Verano ng University of Southern Philippines Foundation, 21-11, 21-16, sa distaff side. 

"Third time namin na makarating sa Boracay, sana makapasok kami sa finals," panalangin ng 19-anyos na si Arenasa, pumuwesto bilang fifth placer noong 2006 katam-bal ang dating partner na si Nelson Dayondon.

 "Last year runner-up kami sa St. Benilde. Hopefully, bago ang partner ko ngayon at sana makarating ulit kami sa finals," wika ng 22-anyos na si Marikit, nakatuwang ang dating katambal na si Michelle Matutina noong 2006.
