Lady Stags seek quarterfinals vs Falcons

MANILA, Philippines - San Sebastian-Excelroof tries to formalize its stint in the quarterfinal round of the Shakey’s V-League Season 7 second conference as it battles Adamson in today’s featured match of another triplebill at The Arena in San Juan City.

Unbeaten in four games, the Lady Stags are fancied over the unpredictable Lady Falcons, who are coming off a shutout loss to the resurgent Far Eastern U Lady Tams last Sunday after posting back-to-back victories.

Thai import Jeng Bualee, the league’s scoring leader with a 21-hit clip, is tipped to preside SSC’s attack again with support to come from fellow guest player Suzanne Roces and mainstays Joy Benito, Melissa Mirasol, Elaine Cruz and Jennelyn Belen.

The 6 p.m. match will also be a duel between the league’s leading spiking team against top blocking squad with the Falcons, with 40 kill-blocks after four games, hoping to neutralize the power-hitting Stags with their solid net defense.

A victory by the Stags will give them the first berth in the quarterfinals while the Falcons are gunning for their third win in five games in the season-ending tournament sponsored by Shakey’s Pizza.
