UST-NU softball stepladder playoff set

Game today at the Rizal Memorial Baseball Stadium: 9 a.m. – UST vs NU (softball semis)

The last remaining sporting event in Season 77 kicks off its postseason later this morning at the Rizal Memorial Baseball Stadium, with the stepladder playoff between UST and NU.

The Lady Bulldogs had to fight off La Salle for the 4th seed and final slot up for grabs, invoking the mercy rule in an 11-0 5-inning beating last weekend.

In contrast, the Tiger Softbelles lost to UP, 7-4, to determine who will be seeded second. By winning that playoff, the Lady Maroons own a twice-to-beat advantage over the UST-NU winner today for the stepladder semifinal matchup that will kick off on Friday.

Waiting in the wings are the defending champions, Adamson. The Lady Falcons are toting a 60-match unbeaten run on their way to booking a seat in the finals.
